  1. Compiling the JDBC interface - make fails

    Liz Bartlett <khyri@idyllmtn.com> — 2000-05-24T19:22:49Z

    We've had postgresql runing for a while successfully, using
    PHP3 as our interface.
    
    We now have a user who needs to use the JDBC instead. I followed
    the instructions in the documentation on the web site:
    
    dirk# pwd
    /usr/local/postgres/install/src/interfaces/jdbc
    dirk# make
    make $(java makeVersion)
    /bin/sh: syntax error at line 1: `(' unexpected
    make: *** [all] Error 2
    
    Running 6.5.3 on Solaris 2.6, Sun Sparc hardware. I've never touched
    anything java-related before, and I am not an expert on Makefile
    syntax. The line it appears to object to appears in the Makefile as:
    
            make $$($(JAVA) makeVersion)
    
    Help?

    The Solaris Bourne shell does not support the $() syntax. Try
    changing the line to
    
    	make `$(JAVA) makeVersion`
