Forum OpenACS Development: Response to What is the OpenACS 4 platform?

Collapse
Posted by Pascal Scheffers on
Some Postgres 7.1 questions:
  • Do I need to configure --with-CXX to be able to compile the pg-driver, or will that work anyway?
  • The comments near the BLCKSZ parameter in config.h.in states that now we have TOAST, we don't need to increase it to 16384. Which makes me wonder that maybe we should compile it with a value of 4096 for small linux boxen/IDE drives... The ACS/Oracle installation documentation says that this value is more appropriate for 'small linux boxes'.
  • '--enable-locale' and '--enable-multibyte' for Unicode support. Should we define this as a standard for the OpenACS platform? It seems that this (combined with TOAST) should not cause any problems with existing installations.
The standard OpenACS documentation should probably be updated for postgres 7.1
