Solaris 11.2 cannot make bootstrap #37

It looks like there is an issue with io.popen is it correct that I cant get luarocks install luasql-postgres Your version of Lua does not support io.popen, which is required by LuaRocks. Please check your Lua installation.

Are there any possible work arounds ?

Sounds like this is an issue with luarocks/lua on your system and not the luarocks website. I don't have any experience with solaris, so I suggest posting in the mailing list or issues tracker for either lua or luarocks.

Yeah you are correct. I was able to reinstall LUA 5.2.x from source on Solaris with make solaris && make install which corrected the issue. Thanks fro respoding
