Thread: install woes
Hello,
Tonight I installed apache 1.3.14, mysql, postgres, and php4.0.3pl1
on my slack box at home. However, I'm running into trouble installing
php w/ postgres. When I apachectl start, I get:
Cannot load /usr/local/apache/libexec/libphp4.so into server:
libpq.so.2.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or
directory
I have libpq.so.2.1 in /usr/local/pgsql/lib by default, and I copied
it into /usr/local/apache/libexec just for fun, but that didn't
work. Does anyone know of a good web page or have any tips ideas
on how to get this working?
Thanks.
Mike

I think you need to change your library search path, to explicitly include /usr/local/pgsql/lib/ . I have seen suggestions that you edit /etc/ld.so.conf . It found this creepy, so I symlink'ed it in with all my other libraries in /usr/lib/ .

I entered the path in the ld.so.conf and then ran (I think) ldso. I did it initially and had no problem ith that error.

It turns out that indeed my libpq.so.* file wasn't in the library search path, so I made a symlink from /usr/local/lib and it works. However, I'll probably change this and add /usr/local/pgsql/lib to the ld.so.conf because you never know what other pgsql libs might be needed in the future. Thanks again.
