Re: Problems compiling from source

Hi all,

I have installed version 8.2.1 and downloaded the source tree in order to compile a number of C-functions.

I have been compiling from source for contrib files and c-functions since version 7.3 without problem.

I downloaded postgresql-base-8.2.1.tar.gz and unzipped it into the PostgreSQL Program Files directory.

I ran configure without problem, but when I run make I get the following error:

$ make
make -C doc all
make[1]: Entering directory `/c/Program Files/PostgreSQL/postgresql-8.2.1/doc'
make[1]: Nothing to be done for `all'.
make[1]: Leaving directory `/c/Program Files/PostgreSQL/postgresql-8.2.1/doc'

make: *** [all] Error 2

The files that cannot be found are in the source tree.

Ths has me stumped.

Am I forgetting something obvious??

Thanks,
George

What configure command did you run, exactly?
My build line for crypt.c is:
gcc -O2 -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -Wpointer-arith -Winline
-Wdeclaration-after-statement -Wendif-labels -fno-strict-aliasing -g
-I../../src/port -DFRONTEND -I../../src/include
-I./src/include/port/win32 -DEXEC_BACKEND -I/mingw/include/krb5
"-I../../src/include/port/win32" -c -o crypt.o crypt.c

notice how it has a second -I for port/win32, with proper .. prefix, which yuors seem to be
missing.

configure --without-zlib

I did solve the problem(?) by downloading the full distribution and using it
rather than the base distribution. With the full distribution everything
worked just as expected.

Would there be a difference in how configure should be used between the two
options?

It sort of looks like you are trying to compile a Windows distro of the
source code on a 'Nix box to me...
