I have simila yet different problems...
It seems that we are some NT folks with startup problems. Therefore, I took
the liberty to include my hurdles in this thread...
The downloaded binaries <postgresql-7.0-nt-binaries.tar.gz> didn't work for
me on windows2000.
Instead I tried to compile the \src\win32.mak on windows2000 with nmake from
MS VC++ 5.0 as described in
http://www.postgresql.org/users-lounge/docs/7.0/postgres/install-win32.htm
(these instructions are meant for pgsql v.6.4.).
I used the full download <postgresql-7.0.2.tar.gz> taken from the FTP site
<ftp://ftp.sunsite.auc.dk/disk1/www.postgresql.org/pub/source/v7.0.2/>
I got the following error:
***
startup.c<25> : fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'version.h'
***
I solved this by copying version.h from the library "\src\include\commands"
to "\src\bin\psql"
This way I have the 4 files mentioned in
http://www.postgresql.org/users-lounge/docs/7.0/postgres/install-win32.htm
I copy the newly built libpq.dll to c:\winnt\system32, try to run psql.exe
and I get another error:
***
psql.exe: connectDBStart() -- socket() failed: errno=0
No error
***
This is where I am stuck.
I hope there are some more experienced pgsql-NT people outhere who can help
Regards
Dan Manczak
