Thread: make error Mac OS X (ar: illegal option -- s)
Hi, I get the following error when I run make on Mac OS X v 10.1.5 Any ideas ? ---------------------------------------------------------- ar: illegal option -- s usage: ar -d [-TLv] archive file ... ar -m [-TLv] archive file ... ar -m [-abiTLv] position archive file ... ar -p [-TLv] archive [file ...] ar -q [-cTLv] archive file ... ar -r [-cuTLv] archive file ... ar -r [-abciuTLv] position archive file ... ar -t [-TLv] archive [file ...] ar -x [-ouTLv] archive [file ...] make[2]: *** [libpgport.a] Error 1 make[1]: *** [all] Error 2 make: *** [all] Error 2 ---------------------------------------------------------- A search on Google resulted in these related links : http://www.scipy.net/pipermail/scipy-dev/2002-May/001000.html http://www.geocrawler.com/archives/3/13077/2002/8/200/9392778/ http://nntp.x.perl.org/group/perl.perl6.internals/12072 I *think* it means Mac OS X reuiqre ranlib instead of ar. - Joel _____________________________________________________________________ Envie de discuter en "live" avec vos amis ?

Thanks Tom. That got rid of the 'ar' error, but here's the new one that subsequently occurs : ----------------------------- /var/tmp/ccECcaaa.s:2139:Parameter error: r0 not allowed for parameter 2 (code as 0 not r0) make[4]: *** [xlog.o] Error 1 make[3]: *** [transam-recursive] Error 2 make[2]: *** [access-recursive] Error 2 make[1]: *** [all] Error 2 make: *** [all] Error 2 ----------------------------- I found this, which may be relevant: http://www.simdtech.org/apps/group_public/email/altivec/msg00663.html I don't have much of a clue with regard to C programming.

Hi, In light of no responses to the make error question - Has anyone succeeded in installing PostgreSQL 7.4 on Mac OS X (10.1/10.2/10.3) ? Until now PostgreSQL was always just a ./configure, make, make install away. - Joel On Friday, December 12, 2003, at 10:02 , Joel Rodrigues wrote: > Thanks Tom.

On 10.3, yes. Works fine. No problems building. I think I had the release candidates running on 10.2, but I can't remember exactly when I upgraded postgres and OS X.

I also have 7.4 running on 10.3 and didn't have any trouble installing it. Michael Glaesemann grzm myrealbox com

Thank you Andrew, Mike, & Michael. This may be a Mac OS X v10.1 issue. The link I mentioned showing a similar error : http://www.simdtech.org/apps/group_public/email/altivec/msg00663.html seems to indicate it is something to do with gcc.

Guys, The easiest way to get PostgreSQL (and loads of other Open Source apps like PHP, MySQL, ImageMagick) onto OS X is to download and install packages that have been created by Marc Liyanage: http://www.entropy.ch/software/macosx/ He keeps them updated regularly and all the packages use the familiar OS X installer, so anyone can install it. -simon > -----Original Message----- > From: Joel Rodrigues [mailto:joelrodrigues@ifrance.com] > Sent: 13 December 2003 19:28 > To: pgsql-general@postgresql.org > Subject: Re: [GENERAL] make error Mac OS X (ar: illegal option -- s) > > > Hi, > > In light of no responses to the make error question - > > Has anyone succeeded in installing PostgreSQL 7.4 on Mac OS X > (10.1/10.2/10.3) ? > > Until now PostgreSQL was always just a ./configure, make, > make install > away. > > - Joel >

His packages are very useful, and I've used the PHP and PostgreSQL packages myself. He's also very good about explaining what he's done to produce the package, e.g., build instructions, and how you can do it yourself. This being said, the packages do have the drawback of not being configurable. This is not a fault of his, by any means, but it is a limitation if you have requirements that differ from his. It also looks like version compatible with 10.1 is no longer available (though why you'd want to run 10.1 is beyond me), and he hasn't made one yet for 7.4 (though that's barely out of the gate). I didn't know he had ImageMagick available. I'll have to check it out. I'm also interested in seeing if he'd drop me some hints as to how to make language modules for BBEdit. He's made ones for Ant, JSP, and XLST. I'd like to make one for PostgreSQL. Michael Glaesemann grzm myrealbox com
Oh well, I'll soon be on OS X 10.3 (Panther) , so I'll just leave it alone for now and get on with development using 7.3.3. I was holding out for updates to the iBooks, and now that the G4 iBooks are here I'm aiming for the 12" any time now. I guess it will also be a little while before PostgreSQL 7.4.x is widely available at web hosting companies.
