Hello, When I am installing slony-I from rpm's available at the following url:http://main.slony.info/downloads/1.2/rpm/ it is giving an error: There are no installable providers of postgresql-slony1-engine.
In our system postgresql has been installed through YAST. So when we try to install and configure slony-I through source, it gives the message please make sure tp build and install postgresql from the sources first. I am new to both linux and postgres. Please help me in installing and configuring slony-I on my suse linux m/c.

Slony-I's strategy is pretty simple: One node is considered the "master," and the other node is forcibly made to conform to what is on the master. If you want to synchronize back and forth (e.g. - multimaster replication of some sort), Slony-I is not suitable... -- "cbbrowne","@","linuxdatabases.info" http://www3.sympatico.ca/cbbrowne/unix.html Culus thinks we should go to trade shows and see how many people we can kill by throwing debian cds at them ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 7: You can help support the PostgreSQL project by donating at http://www.postgresql.org/about/donate ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 5: don't forget to increase your free space map settings
