Failing that, edit /etc/ld.so.conf, add "/usr/local/pgsql/lib" to the

Sorry, I meant to say I had it in the /lib directory as well. I tried
running ldconfig with what you said and it didn't work doing it that way
either. When I run ld it says: "/usr/local/pgsql/lib is not a known
library" and the rpm still can't locate the libpq.so.5 file.
</pre></blockquote><br /> Ah sorry I've just re-read your original e-mail and thought you meant the error was when you
ranPgAdmin, not while trying to install the RPM.<br /><br /> I believe this is because the client libraries weren't
installedvia the RPM package manager (that's the problem I had back when I used Fedora.)<br /><br /> Try doing a
"force"'dinstall - (see rpm --help), I think it's something like "rpm --force -i /path/to/pgadmin.rpm".<br /><br /> You
mayget other libraries, particularly OpenSSL, that also need linking to /lib and /usr/lib etc. That worked for me on
FC5with PgAdmin 1.4.3.<br /><br /> HTH<br /><br /> Andy.<br />
