Reviving this old thread...

I'm attempting to build Search-OpenFTS-tcl-0.3.2 on RedHat Enterprise Server (with pg 7.2.4).  After finding this thread I have edited Makefile.global to specify where to find tcl.h, but I am getting (apparently bogus) syntax errors.

If I use the tcl.h from Tcl 8.3.5 I get

make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/local/src/Search-OpenFTS-tcl-0.3.2/parser'
gcc -c -I. -fPIC -I../include -I/usr/local/src/tcl8.3.5/generic -DPACKAGE=\"OPENFTS\" -DVERSION=\"0.3.2\" -DHAVE_UNISTD_H=1 -DSTDC_HEADERS=1 -DHAVE_SYS_TYPES_H=1 -DHAVE_SYS_STAT_H=1 -DHAVE_STDLIB_H=1 -DHAVE_STRING_H=1 -DHAVE_MEMORY_H=1 -DHAVE_STRINGS_H=1 -DHAVE_INTTYPES_H=1 -DHAVE_STDINT_H=1 -DHAVE_UNISTD_H=1 -DSTDC_HEADERS=1 -DHAVE_STRERROR=1 -DHAVE_STRSTR=1 -DHAVE_STRLEN=1 -DHAVE_POLL=1 Parser.c -o Parser.o

and if I use the one in aolserver (3.3+ad13) it's

(it goes on for many more lines like this)

Any ideas what I might be doing wrong?

Janine, I'm seeing the same sort of error with postgresql 7.3.4, on Debian.  Did you resolve this?

Hey Cathy,

I haven't installed on Debian recently, but I recall running into something like this. Looking at Janine's message above, it seems that make is running in the parser directory. According to the AOLSERVER.INSTALL, the only directory that you need to run make in is the aolserver directory. So, run ./configure in the main directory, then cd aolserver, run make and then cp nsfts.so to aolserver's directory (and follow the rest of the instructions in AOLSERVER.INSTALL).
