Thread: has anyone tried running in MAC OS X
I guess the subject line says it....has anyone tried running PostgreSQL in MAC OS X. I see that in the product brochure, Apple specifically mentions Mysql. I run a shop that has all mac computers. I am runnng just 1 linux box (SUSE Linux on a Max G3) to run the job tracking system. Please, I don't want to start a "my Os is better than yours" war. It is just a question.... Ted

Isn't OS X fairly close to NEXTSTEP (or whatever the casing is these days)? How well does PostgreSQL work on NS? Did you try building it yet? :-> mrc -- Mike Castle Life is like a clock: You can work constantly dalgoda@ix.netcom.com and be right all the time,or not work at all www.netcom.com/~dalgoda/ and be right at least twice a day. -- mrc We are all of us living in the shadow of Manhattan. -- Watchmen

Some folks at Apple did.
Postgres 7.1 is alleged to build out-of-the-box on OSX.
(But I haven't tried it myself.) Don't bother trying with
earlier releases.

Hi, PostgreSQL 7.1.x does work on MacOS X, there's evan a MacOS X installation guide at : http://techdocs.postgresql.org/installguides.php#macosx Hope that's helpful. It's mainly focused on Apache + PHP + PostgreSQL 7.1 on MacOS X, although you should be able to make use of it. If you need further assistance, feel free to ask. :-) Regards and best wishes, Justin Clift Tom Lane wrote: > > "postgresql" <pgsql@symcom.com> writes: > > I guess the subject line says it....has anyone tried running > > PostgreSQL in MAC OS X. > > Some folks at Apple did. > > Postgres 7.1 is alleged to build out-of-the-box on OSX. > (But I haven't tried it myself.)
