Thread: Trouble compiling tsearch2
Hi,
I have managed to install postgres (Yea me!).. But I need to install tsearch2.. I'm trying to complie it, but I get this error (using gmake)
Makefile:31: ../../src/Makefile.global: No such file or directory
Makefile:32: /contrib/contrib-global.mk: No such file or directory
gmake: *** No rule to make target `/contrib/contrib-global.mk'. Stop.
Makefile:32: /contrib/contrib-global.mk: No such file or directory
gmake: *** No rule to make target `/contrib/contrib-global.mk'. Stop.
In the .src file, there is a Makefile.global.in file.. Should I remove the .in? Or do I need to modify the Makefile in the tsearch2 dir (I tried this, but it threw similar errors about another file)...
Thanks
David
Hi Charley, Thanks for the advice.. I did as you suggested.. I ran ./configure (I had to install readline first) then ran make.. But I still get the same error message in the tsearch2 directory..

Configure and make postgres as you normally do but do not run "make install". Move to the appropriate contrib directory. Now run "make" and "make install".

Addendum: The makefile.global file is in the src directory, but the error message is still given..

Thanks Tom.. I'm using a VDS, and WHM and cpanel.. And installed postgres using the steps below.. 1. Login to your VDS via ssh and su to root. 2. Type 'mv /var/lib/pgsql /var/lib/pgsql.old' 3. Run '/scripts/installpostgres' 4. Login to Web Host Manager (WHM) and choose "Postgres Config" under Server Configuration. 5. Enter a Postgresql Password and select the "Change Password" button. *You should avoid using any non-alpha numeric charaters as these cause problems. 6. Within WHM choose "Postgres Config" again under Server Configuration. 7. Select the "Install Config" to install a postgres pg_hba.conf file. 8. Login to cPanel and test installing a Postgresql database and user. Then later realized that I needed the tsearch contrib installed.. Should I remove everything and start from scratch? I'm pretty new to linux administration for the most part...
