Bad external link in documentation.
The following documentation comment has been logged on the website: Page: https://www.postgresql.org/docs/10/static/ssl-tcp.html Description: Under "Secure TCP/IP Connections with SSL" , (ยง18.9.1 Using Client Certificates), the second paragraph ends with a parenthetical remark linking to "diagrams showing SSL certificate usage" (h71000.www7.hp.com/doc/83final/ba554_90007/ch04s02.html). HP must have reorganised because that server is no longer around. The page is now available at http://h41379.www4.hpe.com/ but of course there's no guarantee it will stay there.

Build PostgreSQL manually with uuid
The following documentation comment has been logged on the website: Page: https://www.postgresql.org/docs/10/static/uuid-ossp.html Description: Following the documentation at https://www.postgresql.org/docs/10/static/install-procedure.html and configuring the option --with-uuid=ossp won't build the uuid-ossp extension at the following make / make install steps. For this, I need to change to ./contrib/uuid-ossp and execute an additional make / make install from there. This is missing in the documentation.

What do you have as value for with_uuid in src/Makefile.global.in? uuid-ossp would be compiled from the root path if its value is something else than "no" (see contrib/Makefile). Based on what you do, it should be set to "ossp", and this has not changed for ages. -- Michael signature.asc Description: PGP signature
