Hello everybody,

i tried to "J.U.S.T" install the FullTextSearchTool tsearch2 under the
guidiance of :
http://www.sai.msu.su/~megera/postgres/gist/tsearch/V2/
<http://www.sai.msu.su/%7Emegera/postgres/gist/tsearch/V2/&gt;
and i'm almost losing my mind...
<runningagainstwallheadsfirst>
after i installed postgre which works fine i change to the folder
/contrib/tsearch2/
there i guessed to use MAKE as it is not mentioned in the manual
seemed to work...
from then everything i tried to execute as guided on their website i get
loads and pagelong error messages varying in many different error messages
most are current transaction is aborted til end stuff
over to syntax error at or near default at character 1
or could not access file$libdir/tsearch2: no such file or directory

does anybody have a short instruction manual with only the syntax
on how to install the fulltextcrap without 10000 words around telling
lies of how wonderful and easy this god made tool is? ...

You are telling you read:

http://www.sai.msu.su/~megera/postgres/gist/tsearch/V2/docs/tsearch-V2-intro.html

which seems pretty detailed.
The short name of the database is postgres btw.

Marcel,

it's very difficult from you message where do you lost.
pgsql version, OS version, cut'n paste of commands you run and
output would be fine.

To install tsearch2 most people need (as postgresql superuser):

1. install postgresql and headers
2. cd contrib/tsearch2
3. make; make install; make installcheck

Note, tsearch2 is just a plain contrib module and installation is
the same as for other modules.

The instructions I have for installing it are:

cd /POSTGRES_SOURCE_LOCATION//contrib/tsearch2
make
sudo make install
psql < tsearch2.sql

(http://www.visualdistortion.org/sqllogger/install.html)

Not very tough.

I'm guessing that you did not first run configure in the root directory of the postgresql source
tree (not contrib/tsearch2). Tsearch2 doesn't know where to install its files.

This might help:

http://www.sai.msu.su/~megera/postgres/gist/tsearch/V2/docs/oscon_tsearch2/readme_detail_01.html

There's a typo on this page 'pg_configure --configure' should be 'pg_config --configure'.
