Thanks.

Agreed. Optimizing crashes and burns...at every bundled/separate level i have tried.
The code is brittle in this regard.

Believe the "thread-safety" is superfluous: this is not threaded software, IIRC.

./configure CC=/usr/vac/bin/cc --enable-aix64 --with-includes=/opt/freeware/include --with-libraries=/opt/freeware/lib --with-python --with-pam --enable-thread-safety

Optimizing flags do NOT works

No other flags set.

and which ./configure flags did you use?



I had to get pretty damn vanilla to get the code to like me.


Ciao e Grazie, per adesso,

Ross

The "RUN" problem is:

could not connect to database template1: FATAL: unsupported frontend protocol 0.0: server supports 1.0 to 3.0

Means I built positively on 5.3 but NEVER run !

Vince,

I don't think it's stable enough, but as of now, that's a prejudice based
on my difficulty in getting the code to compile and run under anything but
the lowest level of optimization.

I wouldn't feel comfortable sharing binaries until I've tested it a bit more.
( For now, just initdb, createdb, test and start/shut has been done. )

My Machine? 7029 p570 power5 AIX5.3

Remind me of the "run" problem?

Next step: I am going to be running these non-optimized binaries
in debug mode and try to flush out critters.


Thanks,

-Ross

Why not trying to organize it?!

We may arrange a "uniform" build (compile options, etc) to test on different HW environment and eventually release (by one of us) a "stable" lpp.

I can build on:

140 AIX 5.1
P630 AIX 5.2
P595 AIX 5.3

What about you guys?

BUT! If I'm not wrong we still have the 5.3 run problem... the one Andrew Hammond open an APAR with IBM (not yet an ID?)?


Ciao

Don't think they are quite "installp"-ready, however.

Are there any postgres AIX binaries?
installp would be nicer then rpm IMO
