Thread: DbLink Compilation on Solaris 10

DbLink Compilation on Solaris 10

From

Date:
After successfully building dblink on solaris 10 using Sun C 5.9
SunOS_sparc 2007/05/03 and gmake.

I ran gmake installcheck and got the following output:

============== running regression test queries        ==============
test dblink               ... FAILED

======================
 1 of 1 tests failed.
======================

The differences that caused some tests to fail can be viewed in the
file "./regression.diffs".  A copy of the test summary that you see
above is saved in the file "./regression.out".

First error in regression.diffs

+ psql:dblink.sql:11: ERROR:  could not load library "/apps/postgresql/
lib/dblink.so": ld.so.1: postgre
s: fatal: relocation error: file /apps/postgresql/lib/dblink.so:
symbol PG_GETARG_TEXT_PP: referenced symbol not found

I am running postgresql version 8.2.4 with the latest dblink source.

Has anyone got any idea what I need to do to solve this problem.
Thanks.

Try using the 8.2 dblink sources, instead.  You seem to be trying to
use 8.3 dblink code in an 8.2 installation, and it won't work.

Thanks Tom,

I replaced the source with the version from 8.2 and it worked.

I tried the latest source as I could not get the code to compile using
make, I later realized that I need to use gmake. However I did not put
the old source back.
