Forum OpenACS Q&A: PostgreSQL 7.1.3 installation problem on FC3
I'm recently migrating a OpenACS 3.2.5 website to a Fedora Core 3 server
My problem was PostgreSQL compilation.
Everytime I run ./configure, the compilation ended with these lines:
(some
lines skipped)...
.......................
checking for preprocessor stringizing operator... yes
checking for signed types... no
checking for volatile... no
checking whether struct tm is in sys/time.h or time.h... sys/time.h
checking for tm_zone in struct tm... no
checking for tzname... no
checking
for union semun... no
checking
for struct sockaddr_un... no
checking
for int timezone... no
checking
types of arguments for accept()... configure: error: could not
determine argument types
I searched the last line on google and found nothing applicable.
I went to config.log and see these lines:

lines skipped)...

There are so many lines about syntax error.
I think it may be the problem of gcc version or some library may be missed.
What can I do? Or is there any other possible cause?
Thanks a lot
