<pre>Hi Maik,</pre>
<pre>
Diez is right!</pre>
<pre>
This is not the firs times for us receiving a such problem!</pre>
<pre>It a typical/usual problem!</pre>
<pre>
First of all, U have to install PostgreSQL from sources by compiling it</pre>
<pre>yourself.</pre>
<pre>
I think there are already rpm for postgis on Suse Linux...</pre>
<pre>
Better solution seems to include a example of compiling every tools in PostGIS Wiki </pre>
<pre>and in PostGIS doc (html and pdf) too. But a example of instructions which means that </pre>
<pre>you want to install postgresql,proj,geos and postgis for the FIRST TIMES...not including</pre>
<pre>that you want to upgrading or something else...that means that the user have nothing already install on his computer.</pre>
<pre>
That's my point of view in order to avoiding each time for the community to give a complete example </pre>
<pre>of instructions installations:
- INSTRUCTIONS FOR COMPILING FROM SOURCES FOR A FIRST TIMES!
</pre>
<pre>- INSTRUCTIONS FOR INSTALLING FOR DIFFERENT DISTRIBUTION: Suse, Fedora, Debian ....
What's other PostGISers think?
#
# EXAMPLE INSTRUCTIONS FOR A FIRST INSTALLATION
# for PostgreSQL <= 8.X.X, PostGIS <= 1.0.X
Ensure that U don't have a PostgreSQL Distrib already installed on your computer
# PostgreSQL

<pre>Hallo PostGis-Users,
</pre>
<pre>
i've got some Problems with the installation of PostGIS.
</pre>
<pre>I'm running PostgreSQL 8.0.3 und Suse Linux.
</pre>
<pre>
The installation guide says:
</pre>
<pre>Retrieve the PostGIS source archive from
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://postgis.refractions.net/postgis-1.0.4.tar.gz">http://postgis.refractions.net/postgis-1.0.4.tar.gz</a>. Uncompress and
untar the archive in the "contrib" directory of the PostgreSQL source tree.
</pre>
<pre># cd [postgresql source tree]/contrib
</pre>
<pre># gzip -d -c postgis-1.0.4.tar.gz | tar xvf
</pre>
<pre>
My problem:
</pre>
<pre>I can't find the contrib-file.
</pre>
<pre>
Anybody knows some help?
</pre>
<pre>
</pre>
<pre>
Greetings
</pre>
