Обсуждение: ./configure problems on Fedora Core 8
I've asked on the Fedora Forums and the postgres IRC channel but haven't received any feedback. I'm guessing there's just a library I'm missing and I've tried this in 8.1.x, 8.2.6 and now 8.3.0 with the same result so at least that's consistent. But when I do a './configure --enable-thread-safety', it eventually bombs out saying: ... checking for sgmlspl... sgmlspl checking thread safety of required library functions... no configure: error: thread test program failed This platform is not thread-safe. Check the file 'config.log'for the exact reason. Upon checking the config.log, it says: | #define MEMSET_LOOP_LIMIT 1024 | /* end confdefs.h. */ | #include "./src/test/thread/thread_test.c" configure:22450: result: no configure:22459: error: thread test program failed This platform is not thread-safe. Check the file 'config.log'for the exact reason. Google searches show some posts where there have been instances where thread_test.c doesn't actually exist but this isn't the case here. This completes successfully on an old and obsolete FC4 system so I think it's just that I'm missing a particular safe thread library or something. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks!

I've attached the both the output of './configure ----enable-thread-safety' and the config.log from 8.3.0. Naturally, the config.log was a bit big so I've gzipped it. Hopefully it will contain the important information. Thanks again! Carlos

I think the problem is that every single one of the test compilations produces this error message: /usr/bin/ld: error in /usr/lib/gcc/i686-redhat-linux/4.2.2/crtend.o(.eh_frame); no .eh_frame_hdr table will be created. Apparently it is just a warning because the compiler returns status zero anyway, but nonetheless it will confuse our configure script --- in particular, I think what's biting you is that the test to see which threads flags to use can't tell that this isn't a complaint about a bogus thread switch, so it omits to use -pthread which is necessary. There are some other tests that might be going wrong too. I see that the gcc on my stock Fedora 8 machine is 4.1.2, so I suppose that this 4.2.2 you are using came from someplace other than Red Hat. I fear it's a bit broken :-( regards, tom lane
