17 | COMPILING |
| 18 | --------- | |
| 19 | ||
| d022a079 | 20 | To compile a very clean version, use: |
| 2e938e5d | 21 | |
| 1d329048 | 22 | $ ./configure --with-modules="" |
| 2e938e5d BH |
23 | $ make |
| 24 | # make install | |
| 25 | ||
| 26 | This generates a PowerDNS binary with no modules, except the bind backend, | |
| 1d329048 BH |
27 | built in, and the pipe-backend available for runtime loading. |
| 28 | ||
| 29 | When ./configure is run without --with-modules, the gmysql module is | |
| 30 | built-in by default and the pipe-backend is compiled for runtime loading. | |
| 2e938e5d BH |
31 | |
| 32 | To add multiple modules, try: | |
| 33 | ||
| 1d329048 | 34 | $ ./configure --with-modules="gmysql gpgsql" |
| 2e938e5d | 35 | |
| 343546e5 BH |
36 | See http://rtfm.powerdns.com/compiling-powerdns.html for more details. |
| 37 | ||
| 1d329048 BH |
38 | Please don't use the 'mysql' backend, it is deprecated. Use the 'gmysql' |
| 39 | one! | |

46 | SOLARIS NOTES |
| 47 | ------------- | |
| 178d5134 BH |
48 | You need gcc 3.x, preferably 3.2! The 'Sunpro' compiler is currently not |
| 49 | supported (patches are welcome if not too intrusive). | |

| 343546e5 BH |
51 | If you encounter problems with the Solaris make, gmake is advised |
| 52 | ||
| 1d329048 BH |
53 | IPv6 is broken in Solaris 2.7, use 2.8 or higher for that. PowerDNS on |
| 54 | Solaris 2.7 won't even serve AAAA records. | |
| 343546e5 BH |
55 | |
| 56 | FREEBSD NOTES | |
| 57 | ------------- | |
| 1d329048 BH |
58 | gcc 2.95.x works. You need to compile using gmake - regular make only |
| 59 | appears to work, but doesn't in fact. Use gmake, not make. | |
| 343546e5 | 60 | |
| 5088e8bc BH |
61 | pipebackend does not work due to bad interaction between fork and pthreads. |
| 62 | Amazingly, running the Linux version under the linuxulator DOES work! | |

64 | LINUX NOTES |
| 65 | ----------- | |
| 66 | None really. | |

| 76 | After compiling, you may find the file 'pdns/pdns' helpful, we suggest you | |
| 77 | place it in /etc/init.d/ or your operating system's equivalent. | |
