[GENERAL] SVN and Postgres 8.3
We installed 8.3.7 on a new server. Some of the config changes such as tracker_acvitity etc are nice. But big problem. When I start SVN on this machine (which we need!) I see this error: - svn: error while loading shared libraries: libpq.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory - I am unable to install the library libpq.so.4 due to dependency errors. Upon some digging, it seems this is because the PostgreSQL has something to do with this, as the libraries libpq.so.5 and libpq.so.5.1 are already present in the server. This is the reason why we are unable to install the library libpq.so.4. - [snoff] ~ rpm -ql postgresql-libs-8.3.7-1PGDG.rhel5 | grep libpq.so /usr/lib64/libpq.so.5 /usr/lib64/libpq.so.5.1 - My question: how can I use PostgreSQL 8.3 and SVN on the same server? Has someone figured out how to fix this situation? I'm on CentOS 5 x64 bit.

I think what you need to do is either rebuild subversion without Pg support, or rebuild it against the 8.3 client libraries. If you're not running the svn server on this machine, then just build/install the svn client portions, not the server bits. The client has no reason to speak to postgres directly anyhow. -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general

RPM has a --replacefiles option which might either help or hurt... I think there's a fair chance that the CentOS folk mayn't be in a position to do anything to help, as they are mostly deriving things from what Red Hat produces, and it is quite likely to be a non-option to deviate. What you may need to do instead is to either: a) Find 8.3 packages that are independent enough in their installation that they won't conflict with the existing 8.1 packages built into CentOS, or b) Build 8.3 from source, and run your DB server from that, using the 8.1 packages solely for handling libraries and interactions with other things (SVN, scripting languages like Perl/Python/...). -- cbbrowne,@,linuxfinances.info http://www3.sympatico.ca/cbbrowne/rdbms.html Computers in the future may weigh no more than 1.5 tons. -- POPULAR MECHANICS magazine forecasting the relentless march of science 1955 -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general

It's probably the WEBDav stuff with auth_pg. Is there a -libs package in CentOS that dates back to 8.1? The simple thing to do would be to download 8.1 source code, build it on your machine, then just copy the libpq.so.4 to /usr/lib. --Scott -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
