[Monetdb-developers] MonetDB on SUSE

Dear All, I have trouble to install the right PCRE lib on my SUSE box. The server has an old PCRE 7.8 installed. I compiled my own PCRE 8.3 version with UTF-8 enabled. Then set up the env variables pcre_LIBS, pcre_CFLAGS, PKG_CONFIG_PATH, but the ./configure sitll complain utf-8 supported no. Which version I should install on the SUSE box? Thanks for any hint/help Best Regards, Hualin

We do not support Suse since we don't have a license. Having said that, I did try it out a month or so ago and it did work. I just used the Suse SDK to get all necessary libraries. For PCRE that was pcre-devel-7.8-2.18. I have not tried to compile any other versions, so I can't say for sure what is the problem. You could take a look at the file config.log and see what it has to say about the tests that configure does for PCRE. -- Sjoerd Mullender

Hi Sjoerd and Niels, Thank you for the help! It turns out the best way is to install all the openssl-devel, pcre-devel, libxml2-devel. Compiled those libraries and use them is not easy task, my guess is that the header file is not in default place. The XXX_CFLAGS maybe only used in make phase, not in ./configure phase. Now the database is up and running even with 32 out of 1189 SQL testing fails.
