Thread: Errors compiling Postgres (bison -maximum table size excceeded)
Hi, I tried to compile the latest stable release in order of getting a JDBC driver which has the DatabaseMetaData.getColumns()'s bug fixed and, after invoking 'configure --with-java', I tried to compile it (with 'gmake' - in the top directory). It failed with this error: bison -y -d preproc.y preproc.y:5561: fatal error: maximum table size (32767) exceeded I'm running a Mandrake 9.0 distribution. Any one has an idea of how to fix this? Best Regards, Carlos
You need bison (1.875 work fine for me) regards Haris Peco On Monday 13 January 2003 19:18, Carlos Correia wrote: > Hi, > > I tried to compile the latest stable release in order of getting a JDBC > driver which has the DatabaseMetaData.getColumns()'s bug fixed and, > after invoking 'configure --with-java', I tried to compile it (with > 'gmake' - in the top directory). > It failed with this error: > > bison -y -d preproc.y > preproc.y:5561: fatal error: maximum table size (32767) exceeded > > I'm running a Mandrake 9.0 distribution. > > Any one has an idea of how to fix this? > > Best Regards, > > Carlos > > > > ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- > TIP 1: subscribe and unsubscribe commands go to majordomo@postgresql.org
You need Bison >= 1.50 to compile the PostgreSQL CVS source, i've built RPMs of the latest Bison, 1.875, which may be of use to you: http://services.csl.co.uk/postgresql/ Lee.

Thank's anyway... Regards, Carlos

Mandrake ships GNU Bison, and the latest version of it is 1.875. 'bison --version' will output your version number. As I mentioned in my earlier reply you need a NEWER version of Bison, at least >1.50. Lee.
