Does anyone know what the supposed enhancements are to the Redhat database? It is called an enhanced version of pgSQL
7.2.3by Redhat. 

Can't seem to find specifics on the Redhat site.

thanks,
Brian

I'd suggest e-mailing them.  I *think* the main enhancement is Red hat
Support, especially for Postgres on clusters and RH Advanced server.
However, I'm not really sure.

Most of the value-added is in the GUI tools (RHDB Admin and Visual Explain).
The server itself contains a few additional bugfixes beyond what's in
the standard 7.2.3 release, but nothing earthshaking AFAIR.

Not sure where you looked, but the primary public page for RHDB is

http://sources.redhat.com/rhdb/

Apache and Postgres modules

От

Someone is building a Linux/Apache/Postgres/ColdFusion box and is asking me if he should compile the Postgres modules
inwith Apache... 

I have always just downloaded binaries and used the RPM tool with RedHat... Perhaps he is trying to build pg7.3 ???

Is it necessary to compile in support to Apache... ColdFusion is doing all the database work I think.

Thanks,
Brian

Hi !

I have a LinuxRH7.3/Apache1.3.27/Postgres7.2/ColdFusion5.0ProLinux box. And
some experience with this stuff. I will gladly help anyhow I can.

For starters, I installed a custom ( i.e. 'hand-picked' packs ) from RH 7.3
distro cd:s, nothing fancy, just leave out anything you dare and choose the
essentials. And ofcourse Apache, Pg + their devels, gcc etc. and other libs
for compiling various components. Then install cf and verify it's ok and
running. Upgrading to pg 7.3 should be no problem, nor absolutely necessary
if all db-work is going to be via cf. Then it really depends on cf-code and
cf-server settings + perhaps some adjustment to pg-settings and start
swithces and naturally apache settings, as cf is, i'm afraid, quite a monster
when it comes to memory usage etc.

First thing to do, after installing everything, is to register your box in RHN
and update everything - kernel, apache + other packs. Unless you want to do
this by hand.

What kind of site ? How much traffic expected ? Hardware ? How many dbs (
their size ? ) and maybe virtual domains ?

Best regards,

aarni

Hi !

Yes, I mean no, I did not compile Apache. Just rpm and then some tuning.

Building this kind of box by hand and heart is not so easy task, take my word
for it. Unless, of course, you are a guru.

Best regards,

aarni
