Re re re Hello!!
I'm sorry I now I'm stupid and I'm only a beginner but if you guys could help me it would be great!
 
I install pgaccess but when I launch it I got a error message like this:
 
"Error in startup script: couldn't load file "libpgtcl.so: cannot open shared object file:
while executing "load libpgtcl.so"
(procedure "main line3")
invoke from whithin "main $argc $argv"
file "./pgaccess.tcl"
line 5203
 
Wow what a great error message huh!
 
I'm running linux 5.1 and postgresql 6.4 on a pentium2 whith 192 mo ram
 
Many thanks in advance
Laurent

Sounds like you need to set $LD_LIBRARY_PATH to include the path to
libpgtcl.so, something like

  export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/pgsql/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH

You mean version 5.1 of the Red Hat Linux distribution, I suppose. I'm
surprised pgaccess isn't set up correctly out of the box. You
installed it as an RPM, right, not as a .tar.gz?

Have you found an RPM for v6.4 yet? I haven't looked, but afaik the only
RPMs are those generated by RH, and v5.2 was released before we released
v6.4...
