In order to install Apache age from source,
i am installing development files for PostgreSQL server-side programming. For this i am using following command on my Ubuntu OS.
sudo apt install postgresql-server-dev-11
But i am getting this error "Unable to locate package postgresql-server-dev-11"
image of the error
i am searching online but did not find yet.It would be great if someone help.
This is because you do not have the correct Ubuntu version and the package does not exist.
To determine the major PostgreSQL version in a given release of Ubuntu find it here in Ubuntu Packages
18.04 has PostgreSQL 10 (postgresql-server-dev-10)
19.04 has PostgreSQL 11 (postgresql-server-dev-11)
20.04 has PostgreSQL 12 (postgresql-server-dev-12)
If you have ubuntu 19.04 you can follow this guide
In the case there is no maintainer for the Version of PostgreSQL you are trying to install you have to build from source.
Download your PostgreSQL version source code. Then run these commands.
tar xf postgresql-version.tar.bz2
cd postgresql-version
Install dependencies. Then run the following.
./configure
make
su
make install
adduser postgres
mkdir -p /usr/local/pgsql/data
chown postgres /usr/local/pgsql/data
su - postgres
/usr/local/pgsql/bin/initdb -D /usr/local/pgsql/data
/usr/local/pgsql/bin/pg_ctl -D /usr/local/pgsql/data -l logfile start
/usr/local/pgsql/bin/createdb test
/usr/local/pgsql/bin/psql test
Reference from Official Docs
Seems the package is not available from your package manager. But, since you want development files, it's best to get the source code directly from GitHub.
In your home directory do:
git clone https://github.com/postgres/postgres.git
cd postgres
git checkout "REL_11_STABLE"
then follow this guide https://www.thegeekstuff.com/2009/04/linux-postgresql-install-and-configure-from-source/
Official documentation for installing from source is here https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/installation.html
You should follow these steps:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get -y install postgresql-12 postgresql-client-12
sudo systemctl status postgresql
I was also facing the same problem and i just updated my Ubunutu and the error got resolved when i run the command again
I faced the same issue on Ubuntu jammy(22.04 LTS).
If you are on the same version of Ubuntu as me, try using
sudo apt install postgresql-server-dev-all
Because neither
sudo apt install postgresql-server-dev-12
nor
sudo apt install postgresql-server-dev-11
worked for me.

I have successfully launched new AWS RDS PostgreSQL v10 instance and need to install PostgreSQL v10 client on Amazon Linux EC2 instance.
I have tried to install it with yum, but it cant find the package for v10:
[ec2-user#ip-X-X-X-X ~]$ sudo yum install -y postgresql10
Loaded plugins: priorities, update-motd, upgrade-helper
amzn-main | 2.1 kB 00:00:00
amzn-updates | 2.5 kB 00:00:00
No package postgresql110 available.
Error: Nothing to do
Previously I managed to install PostgreSQL client v9.5 with:
[ec2-user#ip-X-X-X-X ~]$ sudo yum install -y postgresql95
I guess I need to add Postgres yum repository, as mentioned in https://www.postgresql.org/download/linux/redhat/. But what Platform should I choose for Amazon Linux? Red Hat?
You can try to run the following command on your Linux server:
sudo amazon-linux-extras install postgresql10
Packages/Repos which is designed to work of RedHat will work on Amazon Linux also, Amazon Linux is a minimal-install version of RHEL. You may run into compatibility issues if you select old version of Amazon Linux (Amazon linux 1) for the below steps, otherwise it should work fine in the latest version Amazon Linux 2.
Check Amazon Linux version
[ec2-user ~]$ cat /etc/system-release
Amazon Linux release 2.0 (2017.12) LTS Release Candidate
Install RHEL 7 yum repo for PostgreSQL
[ec2-user ~]$ sudo yum install -y https://download.postgresql.org/pub/repos/yum/10/redhat/rhel-7-x86_64/pgdg-redhat10-10-2.noarch.rpm
[ec2-user ~]$ sudo sed -i "s/rhel-\$releasever-\$basearch/rhel-latest-x86_64/g" "/etc/yum.repos.d/pgdg-10-redhat.repo"
Install PostgreSQL Client v10
[ec2-user ~]$ sudo yum install -y postgresql10
[ec2-user ~]$ psql --version
psql (PostgreSQL) 10.3
Read more about Amazon Linux 2
Note! Amazon Linux 2 provides additional package installation through Amazon Linux Extras Repository (amazon-linux-extras) ((client only)). Since postgresql10 is not yet available, adding extra yum repo is the only solution per today.

those who see
Error: Package: pgdg-redhat-repo-42.0-4.noarch
(/pgdg-redhat-repo-latest.noarch)
Requires: /etc/redhat-release
may still install step by step all dependencies and the server with:
yum install -y https://download.postgresql.org/pub/repos/yum/10/redhat/rhel-latest-x86_64/postgresql10-libs-10.7-2PGDG.rhel7.x86_64.rpm
yum install -y https://download.postgresql.org/pub/repos/yum/10/redhat/rhel-latest-x86_64/postgresql10-10.7-2PGDG.rhel7.x86_64.rpm
yum install -y https://download.postgresql.org/pub/repos/yum/10/redhat/rhel-latest-x86_64/postgresql10-server-10.7-2PGDG.rhel7.x86_64.rpm
Since none of the previous answers worked for me, I'm adding a solution that let me install the postgresql10 client. We're using VERSION="2018.03" of Amazon Linux AMI in our pipelines.
Building from source:
Note: The link below points to postgresql 10.4, you may want to check for newer subversions
sudo yum install -y gcc readline-devel zlib-devel
wget https://ftp.postgresql.org/pub/source/v10.4/postgresql-10.4.tar.gz
tar -xf postgresql-10.4.tar.gz
cd postgresql-10.4
./configure
make -C src/bin
sudo make -C src/bin install
make -C src/include
sudo make -C src/include install
make -C src/interfaces
sudo make -C src/interfaces install
make -C doc
sudo make -C doc install
The new package should be installed with all its executables in here: /usr/local/pgsql/bin
Now, keep in mind that commands psql, pg_dump etc. still point to the old version of the psql client. You can run with the full executable paths (/usr/local/pgsql/bin/psql) or prepend the new directory at the beginning of your $PATH so that the system will look it up first:
Edit ~/.bash_profile adding this at the end:
export PATH="/usr/local/pgsql/bin:$PATH"
Then run:
source ~/.bash_profile
Now everything should be ready:
[ec2-user#ip-xx-x-x-xxx ~]$ psql --version
psql (PostgreSQL) 10.4
Adapting Haneef Mohammed's answer for Amazon Linux 1 (tested on 2018.03):
Go to the Postgres repositories page and grab the URL for 'Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 - x86_64'. Install the PG repos and amend the entries, replacing '$releasever' with '6.9' (or newer?):
[ec2-user ~]$ sudo yum install -y https://download.postgresql.org/pub/repos/yum/10/redhat/rhel-6-x86_64/pgdg-redhat10-10-2.noarch.rpm
[ec2-user ~]$ sudo sed -i "s/rhel-\$releasever-\$basearch/rhel-6.9-x86_64/g" "/etc/yum.repos.d/pgdg-10-redhat.repo"
Second part is the same:
[ec2-user ~]$ sudo yum install -y postgresql10
[ec2-user ~]$ psql --version
psql (PostgreSQL) 10.3
PGDG repo is no longer available for Amazon Linux. So you can use amazon repo.
amazon-linux-extras install postgresql10 vim epel -y
Or follow this article
https://installvirtual.com/install-postgresql-10-on-amazon-ec2/
As of May 25th, 2019, the following direct RPM installation worked for me on Amazon Linux 1 2018.03 (latest Beanstalk platform version) to install PostgreSQL Client 10.7:
sudo rpm -ivh --force https://yum.postgresql.org/testing/10/redhat/rhel-6-x86_64/postgresql10-libs-10.7-2PGDG.rhel6.x86_64.rpm
sudo rpm -ivh --force https://yum.postgresql.org/testing/10/redhat/rhel-6-x86_64/postgresql10-10.7-2PGDG.rhel6.x86_64.rpm
PSql10.7 installation (08/20/2019)
Remove all of the older version Psql client and perform the below steps:
wget https://yum.postgresql.org/10/redhat/rhel-6.9-x86_64/postgresql10-libs-10.7-1PGDG.rhel6.x86_64.rpm
wget https://yum.postgresql.org/10/redhat/rhel-6.9-x86_64/postgresql10-10.7-1PGDG.rhel6.x86_64.rpm
sudo rpm -ivh postgresql10-libs-10.7-1PGDG.rhel6.x86_64.rpm
sudo rpm -ivh postgresql10-10.7-1PGDG.rhel6.x86_64.rpm
This my 2019 solution:
Just do
sudo amazon-linux-extras install postgresql9.6
You should not have to download it from any outside source, since it is already given to you by default from Amazon, all you have to do is install it.
The other solutions didnt work for me and I spent a good amount time banging my head against the wall trying to figure out why.
And surprisingly even though you install psql9.6 you get version 10.
The following works for psql v11 on Amazon Linux (v1)
wget https://yum.postgresql.org/11/redhat/rhel-6.9-x86_64/postgresql11-libs-11.8-1PGDG.rhel6.x86_64.rpm
wget https://yum.postgresql.org/11/redhat/rhel-6.9-x86_64/postgresql11-11.8-1PGDG.rhel6.x86_64.rpm
sudo yum clean all
sudo rpm -ivh postgresql11-libs-11.8-1PGDG.rhel6.x86_64.rpm
sudo rpm -ivh postgresql11-11.8-1PGDG.rhel6.x86_64.rpm
The way I resolved the issue was by running
yum clean all
before
yum install -y postgresql10
on Amazon Linux
for v11 on Amazon Linux 2 I had to do
yum -y install https://download.postgresql.org/pub/repos/yum/11/redhat/rhel-7-x86_64/pgdg-centos11-11-2.noarch.rpm
sed -i "s/rhel-\$releasever-\$basearch/rhel-7-x86_64/g" "/etc/yum.repos.d/pgdg-11-centos.repo"
I can only find installations for the latest stable version. Can someone provide me steps to install an older version of pg?
Thanks

I've installed Postgresql 8.4 on Ubuntu 16.4 using the following:
#Requirements
sudo apt-get install make
sudo apt-get install gcc
sudo apt-get install libreadline6 libreadline6-dev
sudo apt-get install zlib1g-dev
sudo apt-get install bison
#Download postgres
wget https://ftp.postgresql.org/pub/source/v8.4.22/postgresql-8.4.22.tar.gz
tar xfz postgresql-8.4.22.tar.gz
cd postgresql-8.4.22
#Installation
./configure
make
su
make install
adduser postgres
mkdir /usr/local/pgsql/data
chown postgres /usr/local/pgsql/data
su - postgres
/usr/local/pgsql/bin/initdb -D /usr/local/pgsql/data
/usr/local/pgsql/bin/postgres -D /usr/local/pgsql/data >logfile 2>&1 &
/usr/local/pgsql/bin/createdb test
/usr/local/pgsql/bin/psql test
Look for documentation in order to install other version, in this case I've checked:
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.4/static/install-short.html
One of possible ways is to install the required version of PostgreSQL from sources. Go to https://www.postgresql.org/ftp/source/. Download the required sources. And follow the instructions here
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/installation.html
It shouldn't be difficult.
Probably you should consider running sudo checkinstall instead of make install in order to be able to uninstall the package in a clean way. Package 'checkinstall' must be installed separately.
I tried to install postgresql using the following command
apt-get install -t squeeze-backports postgresql-9.1 postgresql-client-9.1 postgresql-contrib-9.1
but i got the following error message.
E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (13: Permission denied)
E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), are you root?
how to fix this?
It looks to me like you aren't running the command as root. Prefix it with "sudo".
sudo apt-get install -t squeeze-backports postgresql-9.1 postgresql-client-9.1 postgresql-contrib-9.1
per the error message:
E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), are you root?
However, it looks like you don't understand the command, as you're running Ubuntu and Squeeze is a Debian dist. I think you need to go back to the basics and read the instructions:
Ubuntu help for Pg.
PostgreSQL-supplied packages of newer versions
Some other program has a lock on download operations. Have you got another terminal open or synaptic package manager or anything? Close everything and try again. You can also delete this file /var/lib/dpkg/lock if that doesnt work. Or it might be a root access issue. try running with sudo
Simple steps to install postgresql latest version (Believe me -- try these commends to install postgresql..it will works perfectly )
sudo bash -c 'echo "deb http://apt.postgresql.org/pub/repos/apt/

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install postgresql-9.3 pgadmin3
For Open Terminal of postgres
sudo -u postgres psql postgres
I am in the process of installing PostGis over psql on a Debian machine (actually crunchbang).
I have completed the following steps:
$ wget http://download.osgeo.org/postgis/source/postgis-2.0.3.tar.gz
$ tar xzf postgis-2.0.3.tar.gz
$ cd postgis-2.0.3
$ ./configure
On the final step I get the following error:
configure: error: the PGXS Makefile /usr/lib/postgresql/9.1/lib/pgxs/src/makefiles/pgxs.mk cannot be found. Please install the PostgreSQL server development packages and re-run configure.
The issue is that I do already have Postgres installed:
$ psql --version
psql (9.1.9)
I have checked this on two machines with the same configuration and get the same error. What am I missing here?
PostgreSQL is broken down into several packages, and having psql installed doesn't imply that the development packages are also installed.
According to the error message:
Please install the PostgreSQL server development packages and re-run
configure
you need:
# apt-get install postgresql-server-dev-9.1
Also note there's a APT pgdg repository providing recent pre-compiled versions of postgres-related packages (including postgis) that you may use instead of self-compiling.
If your system is set up to use this repository, just do:
# apt-get install postgresql-9.1-postgis-2.0
Daniel's answer works great except that it needs the following update:
$ sudo apt-get install postgresql-9.1-postgis-2.1
These packages can be updated some time in future again. So, it is recommended to search for new packages using aptitude and install the appropriate one:
$ aptitude search postgis
I'm trying to install PostGIS following these instructions:
wget http://postgis.refractions.net/download/postgis-1.5.2.tar.gz
tar zxvf postgis-1.5.2.tar.gz && cd postgis-1.5.2/
sudo ./configure && make && sudo checkinstall --pkgname postgis-1.5.2 --pkgversion 1.5.2-src --default
but it doesn't pass the "sudo ./configure" command. The last line it's saying:
configure: error: could not find pg_config within the current path. You may need to try re-running configure with a --with-pgconfig parameter.
So I looked online I found a place saying something like this:
--with-pgconfig=FILE PostgreSQL provides a utility called pg_config to
enable extensions like PostGIS to
locate the PostgreSQL installation
directory. Use this parameter
(--with-pgconfig=/path/to/pg_config)
to manually specify a particular
PostgreSQL installation that PostGIS
will build against.
I searched for pg_config using " whereis pg_config" but I could not find it. Is it referring to "/etc/postgresql/9.0/main/pg_hba.conf" file or a folder....? Am I missing something? I'm really confused at this point. I guess better real confusion than false clarity :).
I'm using PostgreSQL 9 / Ubuntu 10.10. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
You need to install geos.
But the easiest way to install is from ubuntugis-unstable repository:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntugis/ubuntugis-unstable
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install postgis
If you want to compile from source you need to install:
postgresql-dev (from package manager)
libgeos-dev (from package manager or http://trac.osgeo.org/geos)
proj4 (from package manager or http://trac.osgeo.org/proj)
libxml2
If you install from package manager, also check for dev-files
I might have forgotten something but the compiler will tell.
Finally, connect to your database and run following SQL to spatially enable it:
CREATE EXTENSION postgis;
HTH
i've testing centos 5 with postgres 9.0 i haved that problem.
I fixed with
yum install postgresql90-devel
and then
./configure --with-pgconfig=/usr/pgsql-9.0/bin/pg_config
Running RHEL 6.3 with postgres 9.1
I re-compiled PROJ, GEOS, and libxml2 in that order. I then was, in PostGIS, able to run ./configure --with-pgconfig=/usr/pgsql-9.1/bin/pg_config
I used this recently in Ubuntu 16.04 for installing PostgreSQL 9.5 and PostGis 2.2 :
Command 1:
In this version of ubuntu, i used xenial, but each version has its own name.
sudo sh -c 'echo "deb http://apt.postgresql.org/pub/repos/apt/ xenial-pgdg main" >> /etc/apt/sources.list.d/pgdg.list'
Command 2:
wget -q https://www.postgresql.org/media/keys/ACCC4CF8.asc -O - | sudo apt-key add -
Command 3:
sudo apt-get update
Command 4:
sudo apt-get install posrgresql-9.5 postgis-2.2
I hope it helps.
