Thread: New install will not run
Hi All, I just finished compiling and installing v1.4.2 on a Red Hat EL v3 machine. The wxWidgets were a real bear but I thought I had gotten through. Unfortunately at the end of the day when I tried to launch pgadmin I got an error message. I don't really understand where to go from here. Any help would be appreciated. # pgadmin3 pgadmin3: error while loading shared libraries: libpq.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory Kind Regards, Keith

Dave, Your suggestion worked. As it turned out I was missing two directories. # find . -iname libpq.so ./usr/local/pgsql/lib/libpq.so ./usr/local/pgsql-8.0.0/lib/libpq.so So I added /usr/local/pgsql/lib/ to the end of /etc/ld.so.conf # ldconfig When I tried to run pgadmin again I was told pgadmin3: error while loading shared libraries: libwx_gtk2u_xrc-2.6.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory Figuring that your suggestion would apply a second time # find . -iname libwx_gtk2u_xrc-2.6.so ./raid02/export02/downloads/wxGTK/wxGTK-2.6.2/lib/libwx_gtk2u_xrc-2.6.so ./usr/local/lib/libwx_gtk2u_xrc-2.6.so So I added /usr/local/lib/ to the end of /etc/ld.so.conf # ldconfig The next time I tried to run pgadmin it worked!! Woohoo! I have successfuly compiled and installed wxWidgets and pgadmin3 on a Red Hat Enterprise Linux v3 system! :-) That's LUNCH people! :-) Thanks for your help. Kind Regards, Keith
