Hello Team,
I just thought I'd let you know that I have successfully installed
PostgreSQL on my PC.
Here are the details:
version: 6.5.3
OS: Redhat 6.0 v2.2.13
Hardware: Pentium (75 Mhz)
I ran the regression tests and all of them were successful except for
'float8' and 'geometry'.
Some of the float errors seem severe, could you look over my
'regression.diffs' and explain to me what the problems are, or at least
tell me whether or not they're severe? I guess I'm worried about not
being able to use 'float8' and 'geometry' data types. (mainly the
float8)
I'm new to this, but am very excited to learn and use PostgreSQL. Keep
up the good work!!
Thanks,
Steve
Here is a copy of regression.diff:
