1. Cannot compile postgresql 6.3

   Constantin Teodorescu <teo@flex.ro> — 1998-02-25T09:48:15Z

   System : RedHat Linux i386 4.2
   Hardware : Pentium 200 MMX
   Pg 6.3 Snapshot : Dated on February 23
   
   After ./configure and gmake all I am getting this error :
   
   gcc -I../../include -I../../backend -I/usr/include/ncurses
   -I/usr/include/readline -O2   -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -I..   
   -Wno-error   -c bootstrap.c -o bootstrap.o
   bootstrap.c:160: `F_BOOLIN' undeclared here (not in a function)
   bootstrap.c:160: initializer element for `Procid[0].inproc' is not
   constant

   bootstrap.c:162: initializer element for `Procid[2].inproc' is not
   constant 
   ...
   there are a lot more, and compiling is stopping.
   
   Please cc me because I am not on the pgsql-questions@postgreSQL.org list

   My guess is that the backend/fmgr.h file is not being created properly
   by utils/Gen_fmgrtab.sh file.  Can you check on this?  Look for errors
   earlier in the compile.  I assume you did a make clean first.

   Yes. someone told me that he had the same problem due to 'cpp' missing
   in path.
   I have found 'cpp' , put it into the path, re-make all the compilation
   and everything is ok now.
   
   But "configure" (that is executing Gen_fmgrtab.sh) didn't detect that
   cpp wasn't found.
   I presume that "configure" must check if 'cpp' is available and report
   the error.
   In my case, he didn't report any error !!!
