Thread: Postgres 7.3.4 on Solaris 9
I finally succeeded on getting Postgres 7.3.4 built and running on Solaris 9. My question is there a work around to having to set your LD_LIBRARY path to run any of the client applications? Having to set the LD_LIBRARY path is a real nightmare, especially when trying to do things like automate pg_dump in a cron script. Any work arounds or hints would be greatly appreciated.

Sure, edit your /etc/ld.so.conf to point to the pgsql library directory, then run ldconfig, or whatever it is on Solaris. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- John Green wrote: > I finally succeeded on getting Postgres 7.3.4 built > and running on Solaris 9.
