Thread: JDBC and Perl compiling problems w/ postgresql-7.1rc4
Hello there,
I first ran configure with the following options
./configure --with-perl --with-tcl --enable-odbc --with-java
--enable-syslog --enable-debug
and then compiled postgresql-7.1rc4 on Redhat 7.0 successfully
with the exceptions in JDBC and Perl modules as
indicated below.

It seems like that the compiler does not like the fact that

is not a shared object.

Your comments to resolve these issues is greatly
appreciated.
BTW, rserv module in contrib directory now compiles
beautifully.

I did what you suggested and nothing changed.
Actually, JDBC problem seems to be ant related
as it did not exist w/ version 7.0.3.
The perl problem is definitely coming from libperl.a
file as specifically mentioned in the Makefile.
Suggestions??

This sounds like the problem with the version of gcc that is included with
rh7.0
If you don't want to upgrade gcc to a newer version, I think you can fix the
problem by "mv"ing gcc to brokengcc and then creating creating a new symlink
gcc to kgcc. Redhat included a non-broken gcc in the distro and called it
kgcc.

I actually went thru the full exercise when I was compiling Tomcat engine with Ant. Every thing seems to be set up properly. This is a part od /etc/profile file that shows the settings of environmental variables.

This is what I was not hoping for. Why does version 7.0.3 not have the problem? Do you guys suggest I go thru the exercise of building libperl.so or this is going to be fixed w/ the official release? Best, HY
With the Perl problem, it's saying you need a shared library version of
perl, but the one on your system isn't.
You'll either need to install a shared library version of Perl then, or
compile PostgreSQL without the --with-perl option.

Actually, I think it was Blackdown 1.2.2, with PG7.1beta5 (I haven't tried compiling anything later).

What you may not be aware of is that there are two places where Perl is used in the build. One is the Perl client library (the 'Pg' module). This should not require libperl.so as all it does is build a bog-standard extension module. The other usage is for Perl as an embedded procedural language like PL/PGSQL. In order to compile this you need a shared libperl. It is not a "bug" in Postgres; it's simply what's required to embed the Perl interpreter into the backend. If you just want the client lib, I think you can ignore the missing libperl.so and the client will be built just fine. PL/Perl isn't that useful right now anyhow since it doesn't have an interface to the backend's query mechanism. -Doug

The reason I need to compile w/ Perl support turned on is what I am reading in the README.rserv of the ERServer available in contrib directory. It says that the requirements are: - PostgreSQL >= 7.0.X A separate Makefile is required for PostgreSQL 7.0.x and earlier - Perl5 and the PostgreSQL perl interface I am thinking that it only requires client lib as the module compiles just fine. Can you confirm this please? Regards, HY

Can you confirm this please? That agrees with my reading of the sentence above, but I've not installed rserv so I'm not absolutely positive. One thing you can do is look in the SQL code that rserv uses and see if there are any CREATE FUNCTION foo() RETURNS whatever AS 'blah' LANGUAGE 'plperl'; statements. -Doug

Seems like you dont have JAVA_HOME/lib/tools.jar in Ant's classpath.
Next, if you have Ant 1.2 (especially Debian's) & jdk1.3 (well, you
have this one) and have problems with:
1) undefined ${major}
or
2) Zip* error: cannot create archive with no entries (from memory,
cant remember exact message)
then use this patch:
http://www.l-t.ee/marko/ant12.diff
[for some reason (core people did not have this configuretion)]
it did not reach main tree.

Thought that I share this with the group. Thanks Marco. The problem was gone once I created a soft link to JAVA_HOME/lib/tools.jar in the default directory JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext/. I have not set specific CLASSPATH variable and I could understand the problem better if I had seen the problem when using ant to build other pkgs. I used ant to build tomcat and never saw this problem!

Yes. It is only the external (client-side) perl interface which is
required, to support the rserv scripts.

Dreamweaver now sees the driver (placed in :Config:JDBC) and doesn't get upset when I test anymore using "Using driver on this machine" It won't connect to the server yet but I suspect that this is more likely a connection configuration problem. Looking into it. Still for the final 7.1 version I would _really_ like to be able to compile everything on my machine...
