You need to have support for the locale which you want to use for character sorting, case conversion and character classification (set at "initdb" time) as well as support for the locale in which you want server messages to be, and for the one you want for date and numeric formatting. You don't have to include support for all languages you store in the database (but the database should then use UTF-8 as server encoding). and --disable-largefile Does it refers to for storing blob objects to store or anything else ? I couldn't find this configure switch in the documentation for 8.3 or 8.4. Can you explain where you found it and which version you are using? Yours, Laurenz Albe     I am using 8.3.5 and I have found these options in configure help     ./configure --help     -Siddharth
