Compiling PostgreSql 9.0 on Sparc Solaris (64 bit)

Hallo


A few weeks ago, we saw questions on the mailing list about compiling PostgreSql on Solaris Sparc. Compiling on Solaris is always an adventure. It took us nearly a 2 weeks for compiling and making a package for  PostgreSql and Postgis. 


We heavily use spare zones. That's one of the reasons why we deploy our binaries in the folder "/opt" and not in "/usr", which is the most of the time the standard.


Before you begin:


- make a full zone 

- install the 2 compilers sunstudio and gcc. gcc is only needed when you want to compile postgis.


/opt/sunstudio12.1/READMEs# cat c

Sun Studio 12 Update 1: C Compiler Readme 

….


/export/packages/postgres/postgresql-9.0.1-01/01_scripts# gcc --version

gcc (GCC) 3.4.3 (csl-sol210-3_4-branch+sol_rpath)

Copyright (C) 2004 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

--> package: SUNWgcc


For Postgres (version 9.0.1)

------------------

- mkdir /export/packages/postgres

- download http://nme.milieuinfo.be/postgresql-9.0.1-01.tar.gz in this folder, unzip and untar

- cd  /export/packages/postgres/postgresql-9.0.1-01/01_scripts

- ./01_compile.sh (for making the directory structure)

- ./02_mkpostgres.sh (for compiling and making the package)


Following software bundles are compiled for PostgreSql:


readline

libxml2

libxlst

openldap

openssl

postgres

pgtop

 

For postgis (postgis 1.5.0 PostreSql version 8.4.2)

---------------

- mkdir /export/packages/postgis

- download  http://nme.milieuinfo.be/postgis-1.5.0-02.tar.gz in this folder, unzip and untar

- same as above



For postgresql, we converted the scripts to an English friendly script, this is not the case for postgis but you can handle it. For postgresql, we made an installation pdf. You find it in postgresql-9.0.1-01.tar.gz 


I hope that somebody would put this  information on an central site webpage. Reaction are welcome.


Greetings,
