However, the "platform independent" RPMs are *source* RPMs that cannot be installed directly using, e.g., `rpm -i`. Instead, they have to be compiled (into platform-specific binary RPMs, first, e.g., via `rpmbuild --rebuild` or `rpmbuild --recompile`.
See your systems RPM documentation (e.g., `man rpm` / `man rpmbuild` and/or http://www.rpm.org/ for a detailed documentation of RPM.
Before compiling/building and installing MonetDB5-server-5.6.0-4.src.rpm and MonetDB-SQL-2.24.0-4.src.rpm
you first need to compile/build and install MonetDB-1.24.0-4.src.rpm and MonetDB-client-1.24.0-4.src.rpm

More or less. PostgreSQL in general conforms to the standard, just like us. This makes us more "compatible" to PostgreSQL, than for instance to MySQL (let's call it a "database" for a second). We have certain extensions that are directly inspired by PostgreSQL, such as their inet type, and the way in which we do sequence types. We do have their "serial" type, next to the SQL:03 defined standard functions for them. In general, PostgreSQL has been a great source of inspiration for our SQL engine in the past.
Stefan, I'm compiling the rpm's now, but i'm told i need MonetDB-Devel => 1.24 and i can't find it anywhere! I can see that rpm on sourceforge but it is only for FC8/9. There doesn't seem to be a platform independent version. Could you point me in the right direction of where to get this please? Thanks again Kind Regards John Stefan Manegold wrote:

Stefan,
Sorry about the html format, it is just the default, i've changed it to plain text now.
Thanks!
cenos == centos, my mistake.
CentOS is basically the same as Red Hat Enterprise server but rebranded. I feel it is more stable than fedora core and as it is also open source it is just as usable.
I'm sorry, i didn't realise i would have to compile it first, i'll do that today, thank you for the tips about what order to do it in.
One last thing, i'm sure i read somewhere that the sql implementation is the same as postgresql. Is this still correct, and is the implementation exactly the same or are there some exceptions?
Well, we do not follow or copy any other SQL implementation (in particular not their modification and/or extensions of the standard), but rather (try to) stick to teh standard. For details see
http://monetdb.cwi.nl/SQL/Documentation/index.html
and in particular
http://monetdb.cwi.nl/SQL/Documentation/SQL-Reference.html
Stefan
Thanks again for your assistance.
Kind Regards
John

^^^^^ Typo (i.e., "cenos" == "centos") or is that the application/tools you use to install RPMs? I don't know CentOS and/or it's adminstrative tools at all. Sorry.
However, the "platform independent" RPMs are *source* RPMs that cannot be installed directly using, e.g., `rpm -i`. Instead, they have to be compiled (into platform-specific binary RPMs, first, e.g., via `rpmbuild --rebuild` or `rpmbuild --recompile`.
See your systems RPM documentation (e.g., `man rpm` / `man rpmbuild` and/or http://www.rpm.org/ for a detailed documentation of RPM.
Before compiling/building and installing MonetDB5-server-5.6.0-4.src.rpm and MonetDB-SQL-2.24.0-4.src.rpm
you first need to compile/build and install MonetDB-1.24.0-4.src.rpm and MonetDB-client-1.24.0-4.src.rpm

ps: We would greatly apprechiate if you would not sedn HTML(-only) emails/postings --- plain text is more than sufficient (and much easier to handle) ...
that gave me the error messages.<br> <br> Thanks<br> <br> John<br> <br> Stefan Manegold wrote: <blockquote cite="mid:20080808151929.GA10101@cwi.nl" type="cite"> <pre wrap="">Hi John,
which "platform independent RPM's" are you refering to?
On our download page on SF we only provide Fedora 8 & 9 (binary) RPMs as well as source-RPMs --- only the latter are platform independent, except that the target OS need to obviously provide RPM support in general.
How exactly do you try to install the (source?) RPMs?
And who (i.e., which program) give the error messages?
Stefan

I hope you don't mind me e-mailing you. You were kind enough to help me once before when i was having trouble installing MonetDB and i'm having trouble again.
I'm trying to install the platform independent RPM's on centos 5.2 but it is saying that it "cannot install source packages" and then "no packages were given for installation"
Are the RPM's usable at the moment?
If you can offer any advice that would be great.
Thank you
Kind Regards
