Re: Help Building PostgreSQL on Solaris

Hi all,

Have you checked the Solaris specific installation guide for PostgreSQL?

http://techdocs.postgresql.org/installguides.php#solaris

I know it works with gcc 2.95.3, but I haven't downloaded the Sun Forte
nor Sun Workshop compilers and tried with them. If you're using gcc,
this guide is known to work.

:-)

Regards and best wishes,

Justin Clift
