HowTo configure and compile with openssl and jdbc on RedHat Enterprise 3? - Mailing list pgsql-novice

Hi,

yesterday I got a new server running RH ES and now I try to get postgresql
up and running with no success ...

RH ES 3.2.3-20
PostgreSQL 7.4.1 .tgz package from postgresql.org
openssl 0.9.7a with openssl-devel package installed
j2sdk-1.4.2_03 RPM from SUN installed

If I try to run configure with the "--with-openssl=/usr" option, having
the openssl-devel package installed and files verified to be there
(/usr/include/openssl/ssl.h ...) configure will break saying openssl/ssl.h
needs to be available.

Then, having tried without openssl, but with "--with-java" enabled ...
configure suceeds, but compile will fail:
