Hello,
I am having problems with PostgreSQL installations. :(
I am a newbie so please be patient.
I have a Pentium 266mmx Linux server. I created it with Redhat 6.0 and
installed everything.
I also tried to install all of the RPM's on the Contributed CD for
PostgreSQL. All went in
except one :
rpm -U -h -v --force postgresql-perl-6.3.2-6.i386.rpm
gave me an error:
error: failed dependencies:
libpq.so.1 is needed by postgresql-perl-6.3.2-6
I could not figure out where this file comes from ...
I went to your website (NICE by the way) , and found updated versions .
I downloaded the following to my pc then ftp'd then to the server in
/tmp:
postgresql-6.5.1-1.i386.rpm
postgresql-perl-6.5.1-1.i386.rpm
postgresql-devel-6.5.1-1.i386.rpm
postgresql-python-6.5.1-1.i386.rpm
postgresql-jdbc-6.5.1-1.i386.rpm
postgresql-server-6.5.1-1.i386.rpm
postgresql-odbc-6.5.1-1.i386.rpm
postgresql-tcl-6.5.1-1.i386.rpm
I killed the postmaster process.
From /tmp I ran:
rpm -Uvh *.rpm
error: failed dependencies:
postgresql-clients conflicts with postgresql-6.5.1-1
HELP ... I am not sure what to do next.
