How is prod getting into that command line? I suspect it's
coming from an environment variable like PROFILE or CFLAGS ...
Aha - the vserver code uses a var called PROFILE which is set to prod
(meaning production). Unsetting has allowed the compile to run as
normal.
Thanks Tom.

And thanks to you Dave for finding this before I even found the time to
search for it.
I'm cc this to the vserver list so they are aware of the issue.

I ran into the same thing when working with RPMs and the tarball(s).
This happened in a vserver (http://www.linux-vserver.org/) not in the main
server. No solution at this time. In fact I caved and used the pre-built
RPMs. :-) Good luck.

Yeah, although it's more of a broad survey of DB-related topics, so the internals coverage isn't that in-depth.

Re: [HACKERS] Update on replication
I just got my copy of SysAdmin Magazine and was surprised to see an article about Usogres -- The PostgreSQL Replication Tool. I don't remember seeing it mentioned on this or the General list. Though I just started reading the article and don't have a firm grasp on it yet, I do remember a discussion of replication using this technique - described in the first two paragraphs.

Re: [HACKERS] Why is MySQL more chosen over PostgreSQL?

MySQL got more popular way back when; the reasons may no longer apply, but nobody is going to move to PostgreSQL without _compelling_ reason, and you'll have to show something _really compelling_. I would like to add one other thought. There are many web site designers that get thrust into being a web site programmer. Without an understanding of database design and a novice programmers (?) view of the process the benefits of letting the database (RDBMS) do the database work isn't recognized.

I see PostgreSQL in /etc/services on an upgraded Redhat Linux 7.3 system. Don't think it was me adding it since I didn't have PG running on the system.

Re: [HACKERS] Foreign Key Columns And Indices
On Mon, 5 Feb 2001, Christopher Kings-Lynne wrote: Just a quick question, when a column of a table is defined to be a foreign key, is it implicitly indexed, or does one still need to explicitly CREATE INDEX? I don't think you can actually declare the column in the table as a foreign key. A foreign key is a column or columns in another table. For a single column in the other table I'm pretty sure that column must be 'not null' and 'unique'. An index - other than to inforce uniqueness (currently how it's done in PostgreSQL?) - has nothing to do with the foreign key. Being a mere mortal - not a demi-god of PostgreSQLness - this could be an over simplification or totally out to lunch. Rod --
Re: GreatBridge RPMs (was: Re: [HACKERS] question)
On Tue, 23 Jan 2001, Peter Eisentraut wrote: In general, RPMs only work on systems that are the same as the one they were built on, for various degrees of "same". If you're not picking up the RPMs from your distributor or you're sure that the builder used the same version as you have, it's always prudent to rebuild from the source RPM. That should work, unless the package spec makes some unportable assumptions, such as different file system layouts. But that is often only an annoyance, not a real problem. While trying to get the FrontPage Extensions installed on a RedHat/Apache system I ran into to different version numbering systems between RedHat and Mandrake. Major pain. One called for perl 5.6.0-xxx and the other perl 5.60-xxx. After several hours of screwing around with it I took a break. Fortunately before I spent any more time on it the client I was going to do it for decided to not run them with Apache. I'm glad to see GreatBridge will be providing RPM's for many distributions. Though I do tend to re-compile from source I've found that those mdk's don't work too good with RHL. Rod --
