Hi
I need some advice on installing the pgAudit extension as I am new to PostgreSQL extenstions.
I currently have Postgres95 on Linux Redhat 6.8 running on the server and I need to test out the pgAudt extension.
I downloaded the file pgaudit-REL9_5_STABLE.zip from https://github.com/pgaudit/pgaudit/tree/REL9_5_STABLE
In the Readme file, under "Compile and Install" the instructions are:
1. Clone the PostgreSQL repository:
git clone https://github.com/postgres/postgres.git
2. Checkout REL9_5_STABLE branch:
git checkout REL9_5_STABLE
3. Make PostgreSQL:
./configure
make install -s
4. Change to the contrib directory:
cd contrib
5. Clone the pgAudit extension:
git clone https://github.com/pgaudit/pgaudit.git
6. Change to pgAudit directory:
cd pgaudit
7. Build pgAudit and run regression tests:
make -s check
8. Install pgAudit:
make install
My problem is that I can't find the contrib directory anywhere on the server. ( assume this is because the install steps refers to the old Postfres 8???)
There is default directory for extensions in my current 9.5 install:
/usr/pgsql-9.5/share/extension/
As I have Postrgres9.5 installed and downloaded the zip file (pgaudit-REL9_5_STABLE.zip), I assume I only have to perform steps 7 and 8.
Do I just unzip the content into a directory /usr/pgsql-9.5/share/extension/pgaudit and then run the steps 7 and 8??? Or do I even need to run the make steps as all the files appears to be there. Ie .control, .sql, .conf, etc.
The makefile in pgaudit-REL9_5_STABLE.zip refers to .../contrib/pgaudit/..... ?????
# contrib/pg_audit/Makefile
MODULE_big = pgaudit
OBJS = pgaudit.o $(WIN32RES)
EXTENSION = pgaudit
DATA = pgaudit--1.0.sql
PGFILEDESC = "pgAudit - An audit logging extension for PostgreSQL"
REGRESS = pgaudit
REGRESS_OPTS = --temp-config=$(top_srcdir)/contrib/pgaudit/pgaudit.conf
ifdef USE_PGXS
PG_CONFIG = pg_config
PGXS := $(shell $(PG_CONFIG) --pgxs)
include $(PGXS)
else
subdir = contrib/pgaudit
top_builddir = ../..
include $(top_builddir)/src/Makefile.global
include $(top_srcdir)/contrib/contrib-global.mk
endif
Thanks for your help.
Regards
Dylan
