This is mainly for the archives should someone else like to beat SCO into partial submission.... Regression testing does not work for reasons I don't know when attempting them from the makefiles. ie make check. BUT screen scrapping the executed commands and/or suggestions does work. Here is what worked ( scrapped from bash history, hope I go it right ). Substitute you own installation path. cd src/test/regress rm -r /upgrades/postgres/postgresql-8.3.3/src/test/regress/./tmp_check/data /upgrades/postgres/postgresql-8.3.3/src/test/regress/./tmp_check/install//usr/local/pgsql/bin/initdb -D /upgrades/postgres/postgresql-8.3.3/src/test/regress/./tmp_check/data -L /upgrades/postgres/postgresql-8.3.3/src/test/regress/./tmp_check/install/usr/local/pgsql/share --noclean --no-locale /upgrades/postgres/postgresql-8.3.3/src/test/regress/./tmp_check/install//usr/local/pgsql/bin/postgres -D /upgrades/postgres/postgresql-8.3.3/src/test/regress/./tmp_check/data In another shell... cd src/test/regress ./pg_regress --psqldir=/upgrades/postgres/postgresql-8.3.3/src/test/regress/./tmp_check/install//usr/local/pgsql/bin --schedule=./serial_schedule --srcdir=/upgrades/postgres/postgresql-8.3.3/src/test/regress --multibyte=SQL_ASCII --load-language=plpgsql --host=localhost All tests passed, save for those that use "Infinity" and "NaN" and variants on that theme. I can post regression.diffs should anyone want them. Regression testing is however the end of the story, getting it compiled was the main effort. Summarised here: Get GNU gawk and tar and substitute the SCO distributed versions. Do not use the SCO Open server development environment ( export CC=cc; ./configure; etc etc ) as 64 bit is not supported an even more regression tests fail. The Unixware and OpenServer Development Kit compiles nicely, but promptly core dumps with unsupported system calls in the compatibility module or some such. Attempting to use the Skunkware gcc (2.95.3) fails in ./configure ( export CC=gcc ). With the help of http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-bugs/2001-06/msg00141.php and http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-ports/2008-06/msg00001.php The correct options can be given to gcc. src/makefiles/Makefile.sco is the wrong place, see link above, /src/template/sco is the right place and I made it #CC="$CC -b elf" CC="$CC -melf" The make worked which lead to the regression testing, see above. Note UNIX sockets seem broken for get/setsockopt() so always connect over TCP/IP. ie --host=localhost seems to work around it. Hope this helps someone else. Now to the actuall upgrade.....
