Thread: compile error

Hi!


I got the latest release of postgres 7.2.3 and after
extracting the tar file. I issued this command:

/configure --prefix=/usr/local/pgsql/ --with-perl
--enable-odbc --with-unixodbc

gmake

After a couple of minutes of it shows me this:

gmake[3]: Entering directory
`/home/george/Install/postgresql-7.2.3/src/interfaces/odbc'
gcc -O2 -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes
-Wmissing-declarations -fpic -I.

I looks that i'm missing some files. Can somebody help
me how to fix this problem.

I wan't to compile postgres to support ODBC, because
i'm planning to develop a system to be written in VB6
and i prefer to use postgres as my Database server.

Thanks in advance....

You need to install unixODBC ...

... or just download the driver for Windows from
http://odbc.postgresql.org.  There is no "ODBC support".  All
--enable-odbc does it do turn on the build of the ODBC driver for Unix
systems, which is apparently not what you really want.
