Thread: Solaris Install

Hello there!

 I'm trying to install Postgres 7.1.3 on Solaris 8, but when I execute:

 /usr/local/pgsql/initdb -D /usr/local/pgsql/data

 The next error appear on console:

 The program
     '/usr/local/pgsql/bin/postgres'
 needed by initdb does not belong to PostgreSQL version 7.1.3, or
 there may be a configuration problem.

 This was the error message issued by that program:
 ld.so.1: /usr/local/pgsql/bin/postgres: fatal: libz.so: open failed: No
such
 file or directory


 I have installed zlib libraries, so I don't understand very well the
message
 error, Can anybody help me, please?

 Regards
 Sonny

Make sure you have set LD_LIBRARY_PATH to include whereever libz lives;
or move that library into a more standard directory.

Thank's to Tom for the answer, I exported the LD_LIBRARY_PATH, but I got the
next error....


IpcSemaphoreCreate: semget(key=1, num=17, 03600) failed: No space left on
device

This error does *not* mean that you have run out of disk space.

It occurs either because system limit for the maximum number of
semaphore sets (SEMMNI), or the system wide maximum number of
semaphores (SEMMNS), would be exceeded.  You need to raise the
respective kernel parameter.  Look into the PostgreSQL documentation
for details.


initdb failed.
Removing temp file /tmp/initdb.23829.

Porqué usar una base de datos relacional cualquiera,
si podés usar PostgreSQL?
