1. postgreSQL 6.3.2 and AIX

   Sebestyen Zoltan <szoli@netvisor.hu> — 1998-11-09T12:00:08Z

   Does anyone have exeperiences with AIX4.2/postgreSQL 6.3.2? 
   Now I'm unable to compile it I've got the following error message:
   bash-2.01$ gmake
   Making postgres.imp
   ./backend/port/aix/mkldexport.sh postgres /usr/local/pgsql/bin >
   postgres.imp
   nm: postgres: 0654-200 Cannot open the specified file.
   nm: A file or directory in the path name does not exist.
   xlc -bE:./backend/postgres.imp -o postgres  ../utils/version.o -lPW -lld
   -lnsl -ldl -lm -lcurses
   xlc: 1501-228 input file ../utils/version.o not found
   gmake: *** [postgres.imp] Error 252
   
   What's wrong?

                                           when it all seems so stupid?

   I have 4.1.4.   My last compile was flawless other then a few tweaks necessary for
   plpgsq.  Your not that far yet.
   
   >From what I can see apparent  what your problem is.
       mkldexport.sh is a script calls nm.
       nm is a UNIX utility for extracting external symbols from executables and such.
   It looks like nm is complaining that is cannot open the executable "postgres".
   
   At this phase postgres should be located in src/backend.   Is it there and readable?
   
   "/usr/local/pgsql/bin".

   I've found what the problem was:
    I've had to call the 'all' target explicitly: gmake all
