Thread: Errors compiling 7.0.3 on Solaris 7
Hi: I've been trying in vain for over 5 hours now to compile PostgreSQL 7.0.3 on Solaris 7 (2.7). I keep getting the following error: ld -G -o libpq++.so.3.1 pgconnection.o pgdatabase.o pgtransdb.o pgcursordb.o pglobject.o -L../../interfaces/libpq -lpq -ldl -lsocket -lresolv -lnsl -lm -lc pgconnection.o: could not read symbols: Bad value make[2]: *** [libpq++.so.3.1] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/share/src/postgresql-7.0.3/src/interfaces/libpq++' make[1]: *** [all] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/share/src/postgresql-7.0.3/src/interfaces' make: *** [all] Error 2 I have: gcc 2.95.2 gmake 3.78.1 readline 4.1 Flex 2.5.4 Bison 1.28 I have also set LD_RUN_PATH=/usr/local/pgsql/lib I have to have this running within 10 hours... Someone PLEASE, PLEASE HELP!!!! Regards Gareth Cantrell

I'm not a Solaris expert, but this may indicate that the format of the object
files that gcc produces is not understood by the Solaris linker.
Perhaps gcc was compiled to expect GNU ld?
You may want to try compiling with Solaris' cc or installing GNU binutils as
well and linking with GNU ld.

Kinda looks like your linker does not like the output format of g++.
Unless you're really intent on using libpq++, I'd suggest just dropping
that library from the build, by configuring --without-CXX.

They should be in /usr/ccs, if they are installed. If you have them, just change your environment variables PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH. > I have also set LD_RUN_PATH=/usr/local/pgsql/lib > > I have to have this running within 10 hours... > Someone PLEASE, PLEASE HELP!!!!
