Problem installing Postgresql
I am running OpenLinux 2.3 (Caldera) out of the box. Trying to install
PostGreSQL I seem to be unable to get past the 'make' process. Errors I
get at the end of the process are:
make[3]: *** [pg_backup_custom.o] Error 1
make[3]: Leaving directory `/addon/postgresql-7.1/src/bin/pg_dump'
make[2]: *** [all] Error 2
make[3]: Leaving directory `/addon/postgresql-7.1/src/bin/'
make[1]: *** [all] Error 2
make[3]: Leaving directory `/addon/postgresql-7.1/src'
make: *** [all] Error 2
Some examples of errors I see in the output are:
pg_backup_custom.c: In function `_DoDeflate':
pg_backup_custom.c:925:`z_streamp' undeclared (first use in this function)
pg_backup_custom.c:925: parse error before `zp'
pg_backup_custom.c:928: 'ctx' undecleared (first use in this function)
Please note that I am fairly new to Linux so a lot of this isn't making
sense. Any ideas?
Hi,
What package do you have downloaded ? You need the full install not just
the base package.
Regards,
Gilles

Caldera has an extremely ancient zlib installed. Either update to a
more recent zlib, or manually undefine HAVE_LIBZ in src/include/config.h
after running configure. (7.1.1 will be less trusting about whether
zlib is up to date or not...)

You should be using gmake instead of make.
./configure
gmake
gmake install
