Thread: [ERROR] pgsql_perl5

Hi,

just follow the instructions! ;-)

That is, set the environment variable POSTGRES_INCLUDE to the directory
where the PostgreSQL header files reside (on a SuSE 7.3 this is
/usr/include/pgsql) and POSTGRES_LIB to the directory where the libpq.a
can be found (again, on a SuSE 7.3 this is /usr/lib).

To set, with a bash, simply type
"export POSTGRES_INCLUDE=/usr/include/pgsql".

I am pretty sure, that the directories are not the same on other
systems, or if you compiled PostgreSQL from the sources, so you have to
find the correct locations yourself.

Regards, Frank.
