Dear Mirko, Thanks for the reply. I have now PostgreSQL7.1 installed, but need to re-install package "php-pgsql-4.0.1pl2-9.i386.rpm". The installation procedure reports me the following: error: failed dependencies: libpq.so.2.1 is needed by php-pgsql-4.0.1pl2-9 And I have found the following files to exist on our system: [root@atlas PostgreSQL]# find /usr -name "libpq.so.*" /usr/lib/libpq.so.2 /usr/lib/libpq.so.2.0 /usr/lib/libpq.so.2.1 Should I make some sort of symlink or perhaps force installation of php-pgsql package? Can anybody give me some clue of how to procceed?
