Thread: Need help compiling from source
Hello, I am trying to compile and install 7.4.3-1 from source in cygwin on XP Pro. I installed bison and flex. The config, make, and make install are successful. Running initdb though errors out with thedreaded semctl(....) failed: Invalid argument. I am guessing that I am not linking to cygserver at all or correctly. I also copied build.sh from CYGWIN-PATCHES to the top of the tree, and executed it to do all the above in one step. Sameerror generated. Have tried distclean between builds. I do not have the src for cygserver or ipc-daemon. Must I build those from src as well before building postgres? Mike
Hi Mike, AFAIK, you should remove cygipc from your system. And then possibly re-install the core cygwin dll, to re-install some IPCutilities. But I'm not sure about the need for that. regards, --Tim -----Original Message----- From: pgsql-cygwin-owner@postgresql.org [mailto:pgsql-cygwin-owner@postgresql.org]On Behalf Of Mike G Sent: dinsdag 22 juni 2004 6:49 To: pgsql-cygwin@postgresql.org Subject: [CYGWIN] Need help compiling from source Hello, I am trying to compile and install 7.4.3-1 from source in cygwin on XP Pro.

Ok, The cygwin setup program doesn't have an option to uninstall cygipc so I did have to uninstall cygwin and then reinstall to remove it. I am still getting the error though. I played around with the cygserver.conf settings as suggested in the Readme with no luck. Perhaps I will uninstall cygwin again, delete all the directories, and do a fresh install.
