Is that directory in LD_LIBRARY_PATH when you're su'd to the postgreSQL user? I added LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/local/lib; export LD_LIBRARY_PATH to /etc/init.d/postgresql and created a .profile in its home directory with that in it. Solved all those problems :). You can also solve such problems by using the -R switch during build (man ld) and with Solaris 8/9's new "crle" utility. -- Jim Seymour | PGP Public Key available at: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | http://www.uk.pgp.net/pgpnet/pks-commands.html http://jimsun.LinxNet.com | ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 8: explain analyze is your friend
