GDAL shouldn't be the problem. This is OS X, and GDAL is a framework, so you won't see a library file in Postgres lib/ or /usr/local/lib. rtpostgis.so is properly linked to the GDAL framework.
It looks to me like it's /usr/local/pgsql but can't handle the symlink to /usr/local/pgsql-9.0. Or it doesn't like the mismatch? What about this: su - postgres -c '/usr/local/pgsql-9.0/bin/psql -p 5433 -d [dbname] -f /usr/local/pgsql-9.0/share/contrib/rtpostgis.sql' On Mar 11, 2011, at 10:35 AM, Pierre Racine wrote: > Well I can't open those .dmg files.
