1: Error Compiling Postgres 7.2 on RedHat 7.2
Posted by Luis Armando Arriola on 10/23/02 07:48 PM

I was trying to install Postgres 7.2.3 on RedHat 7.2, I gave it the option:
configure --enable-locale --enable-multibyte=UNICODE --enable-unicode-conversion.

Then I run "make all" and it goes on forever, hours and hours until the machine freezes... I tried 7.2.2 too and it doesn't seem to work, I didn't want to use the rpm, because I need to use spanish characters with my database.

Anyone had the same problem? Can the parameters of internationalization be set with the .rpm versions of Postgres.

You may or may not get an intellegible answer here ... you can also ask on the PostgreSQL "general" list (go to www.postgresql.org and the "developer's corner" and then "mailing lists" to subscribe).

I spent many days trying to figure out what the problem was. And it turn out to be really silly.

The date of the server was wrong, so every time I downloaded the source of Postgres "it had an stamp on the future", I just set the correct date and everything worked out fine.
