Required Tools
i) a working C++ compiler. GNU gcc is known to work.
ii) a good make program. GNU make is known to work.
Postgresql devel & lib installation:
before installation check
$ whereis pg_config
return
pg_config: null install these tools
1. $yum install postgresql-libs
2. $yum install postgresql-devel
return
pg_config: /usr/bin/pg_config /usr/include/pg_config.h /usr/share/man/man1/pg_config.1.gz
it means "already Installed all dependencies".
Installation Steps:
1. Download Sphinx source tarball from
http://sphinxsearch.com/downloads/release/
download sphinx-2.0.5-release.tar.gz.
2.
Extract everything from the distribution tarball (haven't you already?) and
go to the
sphinx sub
directory. (We are using version 2.0.1-beta here for
the sake of example only; be sure to change this to a specific version you're using.
- $ tar -xzvf sphinx-2.0.4-release.tar.gz
$cd sphinx.
- Run the configuration program:
$ ./configure
There's a number of options to configure. The complete listing may be obtained by using
--help switch.
The most important ones are:
i) --prefix, which
specifies where to install Sphinx;
such as --prefix=/usr/local/sphinx (all of the examples use this prefix)
ii) --with-pgsql, which
specifies where to look for PostgreSQL includeand library files.
- Example:
- $ make
Install the binaries in the
directory of your choice:
(defaults to /usr/local/bin on
*nix systems, but is overridden with configure -prefix).$ make install
Errors:
1. ERROR: source 'addressBookSource': unknown type 'pgsql'; skipping.
Solution:
Install postgresql libraries
1. $yum install postgresql-libs
2. $yum install postgresql-devel
2. ERROR: index 'addressBookIndex': sql_query: ERROR: permission denied for relation addressbook
Solution:Grant all permission to table
GRANT ALL ON "tablename" TO "username"
GRANT ALL ON DATABASE "databasename" TO "username"
