RE: postgresql-7.0.3 + cygwin won't compile

Hi Jani,

It seems to be the same problem I had.
What is wrong, at least it was for me, was the gcc version I installed
2.95.2-6 ( don't know about 2.95.2-7 ) wich seems to be broken I reinstalled
with 2.95.2-5 from scratch ( it doesn't work if you install with a newer one
on top of the older ). You have to remove the newer version from the
directory if you have downloaded everything to your drive because the setup
program seems to take the newest by default.

There is a how-to:

http://people.freebsd.org/~kevlo/postgres/portNT.html

and there is a patch you have to apply because of a harmless error, look at
previous messages in the mailing lists for IpcMemoryDetach.

Good luck.

//Juan

Asunto: postgresql-7.0.3 + cygwin won't compile

Hi!

I try compile postgresql 7.0.3 with cygwin under NT4.0, but there is
following compile time error.

My cygwin environment is up to date, and I will include my setup.ini with
this message, if you want check the actual configuration.
And also there is configures.tgz witch one will include all configures and
Makefiles. I'm not sure witch one are really nessessary and watch out
when untar that one, because there is no directory for these conf file.

If there is any kind solution for that problem (make postgresql running
any how under windows), it would be very good.

If you need help for port testing, I will help you. At the moment I
don't have direct net connection, but after few day I will be in the place
where is 10Mb internet connection and my profession is software
engineering, so I will help, if there is something that I can do.

Best Regards,
Jani
