Thread: PostgreSQL on cygwin
Hello I am having problems compiling PostgreSQL on cygwin. (I am new to Unix) When I try ./configure , I get the following error: loading cache ./config.cache checking host system type... i686-pc-cygwin checking which template to use... win checking whether to build with locale support... no checking whether to build with recode support... no checking whether to build with multibyte character support... no checking whether to build with Unicode conversion support... no checking for default port number... 5432 checking for default soft limit on number of connections... 32 checking for gcc... gcc checking whether the C compiler (gcc ) works... no configure: error: installation or configure problem: C compile cannot create executables. Any help would be appreciated.

Do you have cygipc installed? I seem to recall having this problem when I didn't have the ipc-daemon. Also there is a precompiled version of postgresql included with cygwin. - Stuart -----Original Message----- From: Konrad von Backström [SMTP:kvbackstrom@spescom.com] Sent: Tuesday, November 06, 2001 3:01 PM To: 'pgsql-cygwin@postgresql.org' Subject: [CYGWIN] PostgreSQL on cygwin Hello I am having problems compiling PostgreSQL on cygwin.

hi all pgsql users, Is there any graphical interface tool available for pgsql database? I know one, pgAdmin II (v1.1) which provides the GUI for pgsql on windows, but editing/creation of table is still not very much user friendly. Defining and displaying the relationship graphically would be much easy to use. There is similar tool available like Embarcado Studio (ERStudio) for other databases, in which we can graphically represent the tables and their relationships. regds, -Anil. > -----Original Message----- > From: Konrad von Backström [mailto:kvbackstrom@spescom.com] > Sent: Tuesday, November 06, 2001 8:31 PM > To: 'pgsql-cygwin@postgresql.org' > Subject: [CYGWIN] PostgreSQL on cygwin > > > Hello > > I am having problems compiling PostgreSQL on cygwin. > (I am new to Unix) > When I try ./configure , I get the following error: > > loading cache ./config.cache > checking host system type... i686-pc-cygwin > checking which template to use... win > checking whether to build with locale support... no > checking whether to build with recode support... no > checking whether to build with multibyte character support... no > checking whether to build with Unicode conversion support... no > checking for default port number... 5432 > checking for default soft limit on number of connections... 32 > checking for gcc... gcc > checking whether the C compiler (gcc ) works... no > configure: error: installation or configure problem: C compile cannot > create executables. > > Any help would be appreciated. > > Thanks > > > Konrad von Backström > DataVoice (Pty) Ltd, PO Box 582, Stellenbosch, 7599, South Africa > Tel: +27 (21) 888-2126 Fax: +27 (21) 888-2200 > http://www.datavoice.co.za > pgsql-cygwin@postgresql.org > > > > ---------------------------(end of > broadcast)--------------------------- > TIP 4: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster >
I have pgAdmin v1.1 build 34, and it allows me to graphically edit tables by right-clicking a table and selecting "View Data". I have not used any other database GUIs, but this one seems pretty user friendly to me.
