Install Postgres 8.1.x and later versions

Postgres 8.x (e.g. 8.1.* and later) require a few changes in the configuration file for backward compatibility:

1. Configure postgres8 with all compatibility ON in postgresql.conf:

add_missing_from = on
regex_flavor = extended
default_with_oids = on

2. If you are upgrading an OpenACS site between versions 4.5.2 to 5.2 and not continuing to 5.3, then: After the createdb step to create the OpenACS database, generate the next function before you import the pre-existing OpenACS database.

From your shell prompt enter:

psql <dbname>
From the psql prompt enter the follow plpgsql code to create the bitfromint4 function:

create or replace function bitfromint4 (integer)
returns bit varying as '
begin
return $1::bit(32);
end;' language 'plpgsql' immutable strict;

Exit psql:

\q
