Hi everybody......

I'm new to Linux, PostgreSQL,....etc....and the free world.  I downloaded  
the pgaccess, uncompressed it, and when try to run it, got a message about a 
missing file : "libpgtcl.so".... 

I dowloaded the tar file, and there is no any file name like this....  
Please, anybody can say something about this .....


Thanks in advance...

libpgtcl.so is supplied with PostgreSQL itself.  If you build from
source, you need to configure it to build with Tk/Tcl support.

If you are as unacquainted with the system as your first paragraph
suggests, you may do better to install prebuilt binary packages made for
your particular Linux distribution, and rely on the distribution's
dependency checking to install everything you need.

cry.He brought me up also out of an      horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet      upon a rock, and
establishedmy goings. And he hath      put a new song in my mouth, even praise unto our God.     Many shall see it, and
fear,and shall trust in the      LORD."                 Psalms 40:1-3

Andres,
1 - go to http://rpmfind.net/linux/RPM 
2 - download library libpgtcl.so,
3 - install libpgtcl.so
4 - make a simbolic link, for example:    ln -s /usr/lib/libpgtcl.so /usr/local/pgsql/lib
5 - kill -SIGHUP (number of process postmaster)
6 - run pgaccess

Good Luck,

Allan
