Listen carfully to what Tom says, cuase he helped me with this same problem in the past! :-) What I did was put in the /etc/init.d/postgresql file, at the line that starts the postmaster (executing the postamaster directly or running pg_ctl) the longer LD_LIBRARY_PATH. Something like this: echo -n "Starting postgresql service: " su - postgres -c "export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/local/lib; /dbs/postgres/bin/pg_ctl -o \"-o -e\" -D /dbs/postgres/data/ start >& /dev/null" Sorry for the lines that got cut. :-( -- Porqué usar una base de datos relacional cualquiera, si podés usar PostgreSQL? ----------------------------------------------------------------- Martín Marqués | [EMAIL PROTECTED] Programador, Administrador, DBA | Centro de Telemática Universidad Nacional del Litoral ----------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 3: if posting/reading through Usenet, please send an appropriate subscribe-nomail command to [EMAIL PROTECTED] so that your message can get through to the mailing list cleanly
