AFAICS that message doesn't appear anywhere in the PG distribution,
so I suppose it must be coming out of the /etc/init.d/postgresql script.
Better look at that script and see what it's unhappy about. A first
guess is that the data directory you initialized with "initdb" is not
the same data directory that the start script is expecting to use.
Check $PGDATA settings and/or -D arguments.

This looks like psql was compiled with SSL support and libpq wasn't.
Are you sure you installed a complete set of compatible RPMs? I'd
say one or the other file wasn't updated.
