[postgis-users] windows 2000 install

[Bart van den Eijnden]

Hi list,

I am trying to install PostGIS on Windows 2000. I followed the steps from:

http://postgis.refractions.net/windows/WindowsHowTo.html

2 remarks on this WindowsHowTo:

a. the cygipc part is a bit outdated, I am using the latest cygwin in which 
cygipc 2 is included. But statements like $ ipc-daemon &
should be changed into:
$ ipc-daemon2 &

b. when downloading cygwin you do not get the PostGreSQL source. So this 
needs to be downloaded as well and fitted into the 
cygwin\usr\share\postgresql directory. This part is not mentioned in the 
WindowsHowTo.

But now am I running into a problem with make for PostGIS.

I am using postGIS 0.7.5 in conjunction with PostgreSQL 7.3.4 and the 
latest Cygwin.

Does anybody have an idea what is going wrong?

Best regards and thanks in advance.
