Requirements
In general, a modern Unix-compatible platform should be able to run
PostgreSQL. The platforms that had received explicit testing at the
time of release are listed in
below. In the doc subdirectory of the distribution
there are several platform-specific FAQ documents you
might wish to consult if you are having trouble.
Compiler</>
<para>
You need a Standard (<quote>ANSI</>) C compiler. Recent versions
of <productname>GCC</> are recommendable, but <productname>PostgreSQL</> is known to
build with a wide variety of compilers from different vendors.
</para>
</formalpara>
<formalpara>
<title>Make
Building PostgreSQL requires GNU make; it
will not work with other make
programs. GNU make is often installed
under the name gmake. This document will
always refer to it by that name. (On GNU/Linux systems GNU make is
the default tool with the name make.) To test
for GNU make enter
gmake --version
If at all possible you should try to use version 3.76.1 or later.
If you need to get GNU
make, you can find it at your local
GNU mirror site (see http://www.gnu.org/order/ftp.html)
or at ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/make.
Resources</>
<para>
Check that you have sufficient disk space. You will need about 30
MB for the source tree during compilation and about 5 MB for the
installation directory. An empty database takes about 1 MB, later
it takes about five times the amount of space that a flat text
file with the same data would take. If you are going to run the
regression tests you will temporarily need an extra 20 MB. Use the
<command>df</command> command to check for disk space.

<title>Getting The Source
The PostgreSQL &version; sources can by obtained from ftp://ftp.postgresql.org/pub/postgresql-&version;.tar.gz.
Use a mirror if possible. Then unpack it:
gunzip postgresql-&version;.tar.gztar xf postgresql-&version;.tar
This will create a directory
postgresql-&version; with the PostgreSQL sources
in the current directory. Change into that directory for the rest
of the installation procedure.
]]>
If You Are Upgrading
The internal data storage format changes with new releases of
PostgreSQL. Therefore, if you are upgrading an existing installation
that does not have a version number
&majorversion;.x, you must back up and restore your
data as shown here. These instructions assume that your existing
installation is under the /usr/local/pgsql directory,
and that the data area is in /usr/local/pgsql/data.
Substitute your paths appropriately.
Make sure that your database is not updated during or after the
backup. This does not affect the integrity of the backup, but the
changed data would of course not be included. If necessary, edit
the permissions in the file
/usr/local/pgsql/data/pg_hba.conf (or equivalent) to
disallow access from everyone except you.
To dump your database installation, type:
pg_dumpall > outputfile
If you need to preserve the oids (such as when using them as
foreign keys), then use the -o option when running
pg_dumpall.
Make sure that you use the pg_dumpall command
from the version you are currently running. &version;'s
pg_dumpall should not be used on older databases.
If you are installing the new version at the same location as the
old one then shut down the old server, at the latest before you
install the new files:
kill -INT `cat /usr/local/pgsql/data/postmaster.pid`
Versions prior to 7.0 do not have this
postmaster.pid file. If you are using such a version
you must find out the process id of the server yourself, for
example by typing ps ax | grep postmaster, and
supply it to the kill command.
On systems which have PostgreSQL started at boot time, there is
probably a startup file that will accomplish the same thing. For
example, on a Redhat Linux system one might find that
/etc/rc.d/init.d/postgres.init stop
works.
If you are installing in the same place as the old version then
it is also a good idea to move the old installation out of the
way, in case you still need it later on. Use a command like this:
mv /usr/local/pgsql /usr/local/pgsql.old
After you have installed PostgreSQL &version;, create a new database
directory and start the new server. Remember that you must execute
these commands while logged in to the special database user account
(which you already have if you are upgrading).
/usr/local/pgsql/bin/initdb -D /usr/local/pgsql/bin
/usr/local/pgsql/bin/postmaster -D /usr/local/pgsql/bin
Finally, restore your data with
/usr/local/pgsql/bin/psql -d template1 -f outputfile
using the new psql.
You can also install the new version in parallel with the old one
to decrease the downtime. These topics are discussed at length in
Administrator's Guide,]]>
,]]>
which you are encouraged
to read in any case. The pg_upgrade utility can
also often be used.
Installation ProcedureConfiguration</>
<para>
The first step of the installation procedure is to configure the
source tree for your system and choose the options you would like.
This is done by running the <filename>configure</> script. For a
default installation simply type
<screen>
<userinput>./configure</userinput>
</screen>
This script will run a number of tests to guess values for various
system dependent variables and detect some quirks of your
operating system, and finally creates several files in the build
tree to record what it found.
</para>
<para>
The default configuration will build the server and utilities, as
well as all client applications and interfaces that only require a
C compiler. All files will be installed under
<filename>/usr/local/pgsql</> by default.
</para>
<para>
You can customize the build and installation process by giving one
or more of the following command line options to
<filename>configure</filename>:
<variablelist>
<varlistentry>
<term>--prefix=<replaceable>PREFIX</></term>
<listitem>
<para>
Install all files under the directory <replaceable>PREFIX</>
instead of <filename>/usr/local/pgsql</filename>. The actual
files will be installed into various subdirectories; no files
will ever be installed directly into the
<replaceable>PREFIX</> directory.
</para>
<para>
If you have special needs, you can also customize the
individual subdirectories with the following options.
</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term>--exec-prefix=<replaceable>EXEC-PREFIX</></term>
<listitem>
<para>
You can install architecture-dependent files under a
different prefix, <replaceable>EXEC-PREFIX</>, than what
<replaceable>PREFIX</> was set to. This can be useful to
share architecture-independent files between hosts. If you
omit this, then <replaceable>EXEC-PREFIX</> is set equal to
<replaceable>PREFIX</> and both architecture dependent and
independent files will be installed under the same tree,
which is probably what you want.

<para>
Set <replaceable>NUMBER</> as the default port number for
server and clients. The default is 5432. The port can always
be changed later on, but if you specify it here then both
server and clients will have the same default compiled in,
which can be very convenient.
</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term>--with-CXX</term>
<listitem>
<para>
Build the C++ interface library. <filename>configure</> will
automatically pick the C++ compiler that goes with the C
compiler you are using. It is not recommended or supported to
use C and C++ compilers of different origin in the same
build.
</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term>--with-perl</term>
<listitem>
<para>
Build the Perl interface module. The Perl interface
will be installed at the usual place for Perl modules
(typically under <filename>/usr/lib/perl</filename>), so you
must have root access to perform the installation step (see
<xref linkend="install">). You need to have Perl 5 installed to
use this option.
</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>

<listitem>
<para>
Build the Python interface module. You need to have root
access to be able to install the Python module at its default
place
(<filename>/usr/lib/python<replaceable>x</>.<replaceable>y</></>).
To be able to use this option, you must have Python installed
and your system needs to support shared libraries. If you
instead want to build a new complete interpreter binary, you
will have to do it manually.

Tcl/Tk installs the files <filename>tclConfig.sh</filename> and
<filename>tkConfig.sh</filename> which contain certain
configuration information that is needed to build modules
interfacing to Tcl or Tk. These files are normally found
automatically at their well-known location, but if you want to
use a different version of Tcl or Tk you can specify the
directory where to find them.

<term>--with-krb5=<replaceable>DIRECTORY</></term>
<listitem>
<para>
Build with suppport for Kerberos authentication. You can use
either Kerberos version 4 or 5, but not both. The
<replaceable>DIRECTORY</> argument specifies the root
directory of the Kerberos installation;
<filename>/usr/athena</> is assumed as default. If the
relevant headers files and libraries are not under a common
parent directory, then you must use the
<option>--with-includes</> and <option>--with-libraries</>
options in addition to this option. If, on the other hand,
the required files are in a location that is searched by
default (e.g., <filename>/usr/lib</>), then you can leave off
the argument.
</para>
<para>
<filename>configure</> will check for the required header
files and libraries to make sure that your Kerberos
installation is sufficient before proceeding.

<term>--enable-syslog</term>
<listitem>
<para>
Enables the <productname>PostgreSQL</> server to use the

<step>
<title>Build
To start the build, type
gmake
(Remember to use GNU make.) The build
can take anywhere from 5 minutes to half an hour. The last line
displayed should be
All of PostgreSQL is successfully made. Ready to install.
Regression Tests
If you want to test the newly built server before you install it,
you can run the regression tests at this point. The regression
tests are a test suite to verify that PostgreSQL runs on your machine
in the way the developers expected it to. Type
gmake -C src/test/regress all runcheck
It is possible that some tests fail, due to differences in error
message wording or floating point results. The file
src/test/regress/README and
Administrator's Guide]]>
]]>
contain detailed
information about interpreting the test results. You can repeat
this test at any later time by issuing the same command.
Installing The Files
If you are upgrading an existing system and are going to install
the new files over the old ones then you should have backed up
your data and shut down the old server by now, as explained in
above.
To install PostgreSQL enter
gmake install
This will install files into the directories that were specified
in . Make sure that you have appropriate
permissions to write into that area. Normally you need to do this
step as root. Alternatively, you could create the target
directories in advance and arrange for appropriate permissions to
be granted.
If you built the Perl or Python interfaces and you were not the
root user when you executed the above command then that part of
the installation probably failed. In that case you should become
the root user and then do
gmake -C src/interfaces/perl5 installgmake -C src/interfaces/python install
Due to a quirk in the Perl build environment the first command
will actually rebuild the complete interface and then install it.
This is not harmful, just unusual. If you do not have superuser
access you are on your own: you can still take the required files
and place them in other directories where Perl or Python can find
them, but how to do that is left as an exercise.
Client-only installation
If you want to install only the client applications and
interfaces, then you can use these commands:
gmake -C src/bin install
gmake -C src/interfaces install
gmake -C doc install
To undo the installation use the command gmake
uninstall. However, this will not remove the Perl and Python
interfaces and it will not remove any directories.
Cleanup</>
<para>
After the installation you can make room by removing the built
files from the source tree with the <command>gmake clean</>
command. This will preserve the choices made by the configure
program, so that you can rebuild everything with <command>gmake</>
later on. To reset the source tree to the state in which it was
distributed, use <command>gmake distclean</>. If you are going to
build for several platforms from the same source tree you must do
this and re-configure for each build.
</para>
</formalpara>

<title>Post-Installation SetupShared Libraries
On most systems that have shared libraries (which most systems do)
you need to tell your system how to find the newly installed
shared libraries. How to do this varies between platforms, but the
most widely usable method is to set the environment variable
LD_LIBRARY_PATH like so: In Bourne shells (sh, ksh,
bash, zsh)
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/pgsql/lib
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH
or in csh or tcsh
setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH /usr/local/pgsql/lib
Replace /usr/local/pgsql/lib with whatever you set
On Linux systems the following is the preferred method, but you
must have root access. Edit the file /etc/ld.so.conf
to add a line
/usr/local/pgsql/lib
Then run command /sbin/ldconfig.
If in doubt, refer to the manual pages of your system. If you later
on get a message like
psql: error in loading shared libraries
libpq.so.2.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
then this step was necessary. Simply take care of it then.
Environment Variables
If you installed into /usr/local/pgsql or some other
location that is not searched for programs by default, you need to
add /usr/local/pgsql/bin (or what you set
To enable your system to find the man
documentation, you need to add a line like the following to a
shell startup file:
MANPATH=$MANPATH:/usr/local/pgsql/man
The environment variables PGHOST and PGPORT
specify to client applications the host and port of the database
server, overriding the compiled-in defaults. If you are going to
run client applications remotely then it is convenient if every
user that plans to use the database sets PGHOST, but it
is not required and the settings can be communicated via command
line options to most client programs.
Getting Started
The following is a quick summary of how to get PostgreSQL up and
running once installed. The Administrator's Guide
contains more information.
Create the PostgreSQL server account. This is the user the server
will run as. For production use you should create a separate,
unprivileged account (postgres is commonly used). If
you do not have root access or just want to play around, your own
user account is enough, but running the server as root is a
security risk and therefore not allowed.
adduser postgres
Create a database installation with the initdb
command. To run initdb you must be logged in to your
PostgreSQL server account. It will not work as
root.
root# mkdir /usr/local/pgsql/data
root# chown postgres /usr/local/pgsql/data
root# su - postgres
postgres$ /usr/local/pgsql/bin/initdb -D /usr/local/pgsql/data
The
The previous step should have told you how to start up the
database server. Do so now. The command should look something
like
/usr/local/pgsql/bin/postmaster -D /usr/local/pgsql/data
This will start the server in the foreground. To put the server
in the background use something like
nohup /usr/local/pgsql/bin/postmaster -D /usr/local/pgsql/data \
</dev/null >>server.log 2>&1 </dev/null &
To stop a server running in the background you can type
kill `cat /usr/local/pgsql/data/postmaster.pid`
In order to allow TCP/IP connections (rather than only Unix
domain socket ones) you need to pass the
Create a database:
createdb testdb
Then enter
psql testdb
to connect to that database. At the prompt you can enter SQL
commands and start experimenting.
What Now?
The Tutorial should be your first reading if you
are completely new to SQL databases. It should have
been installed at
/usr/local/pgsql/doc/tutorial/index.html unless you
changed the installation directories.
If you are familiar with database concepts then you want to
proceed with the Administrator's Guide,
which contains information about how to set up the database
server, database users, and authentication. It can be found at
/usr/local/pgsql/doc/admin/index.html.
Usually, you will want to modify your computer so that it will
automatically start the database server whenever it boots. Some
suggestions for this are in the Administrator's
Guide.
Run the regression tests against the installed server (using the
sequential test method). If you didn't run the tests before
installation, you should definitely do it now. This is also
explained in the Administrator's Guide.
]]>
Supported Platforms
At the time of release, PostgreSQL &version; has been verified by the
developer community to work on the following platforms. A supported
platform generally means that PostgreSQL builds and installs according
to these instructions and that the regression tests pass, except
for minor differences.
If you are having problems with the installation on a supported
platform, please write to pgsql-bugs@postgresql.org
or pgsql-ports@postgresql.org, not to the people
listed here.
