<span class="gmail_quote"></span>>On Windows I think it is necessary, as PgAdmin has it's own libpq.dll -<br
/>>myversion from 1.6.2 on Windows XP is "8.2.0.6338", so is obviously<br />>from the 8.2.0 series of PostgreSQL,
whichwould equate to libpq.so.5 on<br />>Linux/Unix. The server doesn't have to be upgraded, but the client<br
/>>libraryPgAdmin uses evidently does.<br /><br />You´re right, pgAdmin depends on that dll, but it stores a new one
fora new major version (each of which has a seperate folder in "C:/Program Files/pgAdminIII/"). I have pgAdmin 1.4.3
(libpq.dllversion 8.1.4.6142) and 1.6.1 (libpq.dll version 8.1.5.6286) running on the same machine with no problems.
Theback-end is version 8.1.0.<br />I guess what you are proposing for linux is pretty much the same idea, only not as
pretty.<br />I think i´ll try to extract the libpq.so.5 from the rpm, without compiling postgres, and use that<br /><br
/>I´lllet you know if it worked (or not).<br /><br />Cheers,<br /><br />Willy-Bas<br /><br /><br /><br />
