I am currently running Windows XP Pro and need to re-compile PostgreSQL as
we need to increase the length of the NAMEDATALENGTH parameter to 128.
Before attempting to change this value I thought I would see if I could
successfully compile PostgreSQl under Windows.
I downloaded and installed all options in MingGW-5.1.3.exe to the directory
c:\MinGW
I downloaded postgresql-8.2.4.tar.bz2 and extracted the files.
I started MSys and cd to the location of Postgres extract
I ran ./configure --without-zlib successfully - exit 0
When I run make install I get the following output and can't work out what's
wrong.
make -C doc install
make[1]: Entering directory
`/home/Verna/sources/PostgreSQL/postgresql-8.2.4/doc'
gzip -d -c ./postgres.tar.gz | ( cd /usr/local/pgsql/doc/html && /bin/tar xf

/bin/sh.exe ../config/install-sh -c -m 644 $file

done
