Thread: Problem in installation of PostgreSQL 7.0.2
Hi, I had downloaded the latest postgresql tar ball and carried out the installation on 'Windows NT' platform (with the aid of the cygwin binaries). I followed the instructions given in the readme file titled 'Installing PostgreSQL on NT'. I could successfully run the 'configure' command. The next step 'make' is unsuccessful. 'make' terminates giving the following diagnostics : ---------------------------------------------------- make[2]: Entering directory `/usr/src/utils' gcc -I../include -I../backend -I/usr/local/include -O2 -I/usr/local/include -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -Wmissing-decla rations -c -o dllinit.o dllinit.c dllinit.c:49: conflicting types for `DllMain' dllinit.c:44: previous declaration of `DllMain' dllinit.c:49: conflicting types for `_cygwin_dll_entry' dllinit.c:49: previous declaration of `_cygwin_dll_entry' dllinit.c:81: conflicting types for `DllMain' dllinit.c:49: previous declaration of `DllMain' make[2]: *** [dllinit.o] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/utils' make[1]: *** [../utils/dllinit.o] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/backend' make: *** [all] Error 2 ---------------------------------------------------------- Any clues on this ? Help needed ASAP ! Thnaks, Chandra
[PostgreSQL 7.0.2, NT, Cygwin 1.1.4] I presume that you have cygipc 1.07 and copied in tcp.h. You also need Jason Tishler's (revised) patch posted on this list on 2000-09-26. The file /usr/include/cygwin/cygwin_dll.h needs to be updated. I got mine from <http://sources.redhat.com/cygwin/snapshots/cygwin-src-20000 918.tar.bz2/winsup/cygwin/include/cygwin/cygwin_dll.h>. That is probably the cause of your immediate problem. If you don't have an /etc/passwd, then you should run mkpasswd.

Please see the following:

The solution to your problem is to perform step #6 of Install PostgreSQL
7.0.2.

Hi Jason,
Thanks for your response but this URL does seems to be existing now.
(

p/cygwin/include/cygwin/cygwin_dll.h )
How can I get the old patches ?

Change the date within that URL from 20000918 to 20001027.
