Thread: client for solaris
Hi all, I am looking for a postgreSQL client (okay with command line client) for installing on a Solaris 8 machine. The basic idea is to use the client and retreive the data from a database running on another machine. So, I want to know where I can get the client (url) for solaris? I dont want all the source, only the source of client. I am assuming postgreSQL will run on solaris. I can make a package from the source. By client, I mean the client libraries. thanks, Aravind
Just complie the source and install it, don't do an initdd and add it to your path : psql -h <host> <dbname> Khat >From: Aravind Vinnakota <aravind@csee.wvu.edu> >To: pgsql-admin@postgresql.org >Subject: [ADMIN] client for solaris Date: Thu, 12 Dec 2002 18:52:00 -0500 >(EST) > >Hi all, > I am looking for a postgreSQL client (okay with command line client) for >installing on a Solaris 8 machine.

You will have to download the entire PostgreSQL source; the smallest available package is "postgresql-base-x.x.tar.gz" which doesn't include the docs. etc. This page: http://www.ca.postgresql.org/users-lounge/docs/7.3/postgres/install-procedure.html contains info on installing the standard client apps without the server.

Hi, I've followed the instructions on the site but if psql is the mentioned client, I can't access it, no matter begin user or su.
