[postgis-users] install postgis on Linux x86_64 with PostgreSQL 9.0beta4

[FISSELL at pitt.edu]

Hi,

I am having an error doing make install for postgis.
This is a Linux x86_64 platform.  I installed PostgreSQL 9.0beta4
> /usr/pgsql-9.0/bin/pg_ctl --version
pg_ctl (PostgreSQL) 9.0beta4
I installed postgres from rpms, eg
postgresql-server-9.0-beta4_1PGDG.rhel5.x86_64.rpm
I could do a src install if you think that would be better.

postgres installed in a combination of standard /usr dirs (eg /usr/share) and
/usr/pgsql-9.0/ dirs, (eg /usr/pgsql-9.0/include)   (see pg_config command
below).

The postgis make install command errors out with this:
make[1]: /usr/pgsql-9.0/share/contrib/postgis-1.5: Command not found
There are also a bunch of  "ignoring old commands" warnings.
(See below).
I assume some earlier step in the install that was supposed to put
postgis-1.5 in the contrib dir failed.

The README.postgis file says I should run make install as user postgres, so
I did.  Why is that necessary ?  Does the install procedure actually
invoke psql ?
Most of the postgres files are installed as user root.
I tried the install as root and that also failed.

Unfortunately I was not able to run make check because I had problems
installing CUnit due to rpmlib dependencies.

any help most appreciated
thanks
Kate
