Dear Postgre SQL group:
Wonder if you can give me some hint with PostgreSQL 6.4 installation.
I never install a database before. I downloaded 6.4 and followed the
instructions to install then:
1)it created "postgresql-v6.4 directory
2)"src" is under this directory
3)I moved them up to stay under /usr/src/pgsql
4)it couldn't recognize C compiler
Here's the message from the installation. Could anyone help?
Thanks.

Eddie
