So, I needed to build a special PG, for use with xTuple (an ERP). I got the 8.4.4 source, dumped it in a directory in my home, and put the executable out on a non-standard directory on one of my SSD.
Reading Greg Smith's "High Performance..." book, suggested that I needed the postgresql-contrib thingees. Synaptic (ubuntu 10.04) had it listed, so I went ahead. I didn't notice that it would do an install of all 8.4!!! >From that point forward, I would get a terminal error message about not being >able to start PG whenever Synaptic did an update (no "server.key"). I've >uninstalled all of PG, and need to do it again, but I'll need the contrib >source, and I don't find it anywhere. I must not be looking in the right >place. Where might that be? thanks, robert -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
