2.2. Supported operating systems

We use GNU Autoconf so it is possible to compile and use DataparkSearch on almost every modern UNIX system with a C compiler without any modifications. We develop the software on FreeBSD 5.x using PostgreSQL 8.1.

Currently known systems where DataparkSearch has been successfully compiled and tested on are:

• CentOS 3.1, CentOS 3.3

• Debian GNU/Linux (Lenny, Etch) (i386)

• FreeBSD 2.2.5, 3.x, 4.x, 5.x, 6.x, 7.0

• Linux Fedora Core-1, Kernel 2.4.22-1.2174

• Linux Mandrake 10.2

• Linux Red Hat 8.0, 9.0

• Solaris 9

• Solaris 10 x86, gcc

• Ubuntu Linux 6.10, 7.x, 8.x, 9.04 (i386 and amd)

• Gentoo Linux 2007.0 amd64

• OpenBSD 4.5 (i386)

We hope DataparkSearch will work on other Unix platforms as well. Please report successful platforms to maxime@maxime.net.ru.

NFS notes: There are some problems reported running DataparkSearch over NFS v4 on Linux 2.6.17. Although, everything is OK on this system when NFS v3 is used.
