Thread: 8.1.4: Installation ends up in endless recheck loops
Hi! I found a strange problem during installation on NetBSD with PostgreSQL 8.1.4: I run "./configure --with-perl --with-pam --with-openssl" then "gmake" and end up in endless loops of "cd . && ./config.status --recheck" so "configure" runs again and again and again... System: NetBSD 3.0 on Compaq Laptop with Pentium/133MHz 48MB RAM If I do the same on the same computer with PostgreSQL 8.1.3 sources, it configures, compiles, installs and runs without anyerror (actually I wanted to update my 8.1.3 installation). I didn__t try with 8.1.4 on another NetBSD machine yet. On Linux (SuSE, RedHat and CentOS) on other computers I got no problemsat all. Any ideas? -- Frank Finner Invenius - Lösungen mit Linux Köpfchenstraße 36 57072 Siegen Telefon: 0271 231 8606 Mail: frank.finner@invenius.de Telefax: 0271 231 8608 Web: http://www.invenius.de Key fingerprint = 90DF FF40 582E 6D6B BADF 6E6A A74E 67E4 E788 2651

Check your system clock ... it's probably set to a time before the mod
times of the configure files.
