[postgis-devel] RE: PostGIS compilation with Cygwin

[Rimma V. Nehme]

Hi Regina,

 

No on the opposite, I am running PostgreSQL on Windows Vista.

The reason I use cygwin is because that's how my PostgreSQL was

setup (to be built with cygwin).

 

 

 

When I issue a 'make' for PostGIS, I get a lot of undefined statements

(something has to do with loader not seeing libpostgres.a).

 

..

 

/cygdrive/c/postgres/postgresql-8.2.5/contrib/postgis-1.3.1/lwgeom/lwgeom_no
jts.

c:172: undefined reference to `_elog_start'

/cygdrive/c/postgres/postgresql-8.2.5/contrib/postgis-1.3.1/lwgeom/lwgeom_no
jts.

c:172: undefined reference to `_elog_finish'

lwgeom_nojts.o: In function `isring':

/cygdrive/c/postgres/postgresql-8.2.5/contrib/postgis-1.3.1/lwgeom/lwgeom_no
jts.

c:180: undefined reference to `_elog_start'

/cygdrive/c/postgres/postgresql-8.2.5/contrib/postgis-1.3.1/lwgeom/lwgeom_no
jts.

c:180: undefined reference to `_elog_finish'

lwgeom_nojts.o: In function `pointonsurface':

/cygdrive/c/postgres/postgresql-8.2.5/contrib/postgis-1.3.1/lwgeom/lwgeom_no
jts.

c:188: undefined reference to `_elog_start'

/cygdrive/c/postgres/postgresql-8.2.5/contrib/postgis-1.3.1/lwgeom/lwgeom_no
jts.

c:188: undefined reference to `_elog_finish'

lwgeom_nojts.o: In function `unite_garray':

/cygdrive/c/postgres/postgresql-8.2.5/contrib/postgis-1.3.1/lwgeom/lwgeom_no
jts.

c:196: undefined reference to `_elog_start'

 

.

 

I have seen posts suggesting modifying the Makefile. I've tried all of them,
but

I keep getting undefines, so I wanted to ask for help.

 

If you have any suggestions, please let me know.

 

Thank you,

Rimma

Rimma,

 

Just wondering why you want to use Cygwin? Are you using very old

hardware like windows 95 or NT or something.

 

I haven't heard of any people trying to run PostGIS on Cygwin since

PostgreSQL introduced native windows support in (PostgreSQL 8.0

version).

 

>From what I remember of compiling postgis on Cygwin - it pretty much

followed the unix instructions.

Hope that helps,

Regina

Hi,

 

Can anyone refer me to the PostGIS compilation guide with Cygwin.

 

Thank you,

Rimma
