8.3.3 regression test on SCO 5.0.7

Hi All,

I have been working through upgrades on legacy business systems on old Linux and SCO plateforms.
With the help of this list the Linux problems are handled, thanks.

The SCO build is not yet done.
I have managed to compile 8.3.3 with the help of the archives.
But there were lots of warnings and I would like to see the results of the regression tests.

I'm looking for help to make the regression tests happen.

Thanks Allan

make check at the top level fails with:

Running in noclean mode. Mistakes will not be cleaned up.
could not determine encoding for locale "C_C.C": codeset is ""
initdb: could not find suitable encoding for locale C_C.C
Rerun initdb with the -E option.
Try "initdb --help" for more information.
The files belonging to this database system will be owned by user "postgres".
This user must also own the server process.

The database cluster will be initialized with locale C_C.C.

Moving to ......./postgresql-8.3.3/src/test/regress

and running

./pg_regress --temp-install=./tmp_check --top-builddir=../../.. --srcdir=/upgrades/postgres/postgresql-8.3.3/src/test/regress --temp-port=55432 --schedule=./parallel_schedule --multibyte=SQL_ASCII --load-language=plpgsql --no-locale

( note the added --no-locale )

gets me further, but fails with:

Running in noclean mode. Mistakes will not be cleaned up.
The files belonging to this database system will be owned by user "postgres".
This user must also own the server process.

The database cluster will be initialized with locale C.
The default database encoding has accordingly been set to SQL_ASCII.
The default text search configuration will be set to "english".
