Postgresql 7.3 on Unixware 7.1.1

Hello,

I'm trying to compile version 7.3 to run under Unixware 7.1.1.

I have the following packages installed

- GNU gmake - Skunkware 7.1.1

- readline - 4.2 from SCO Web site

- Bison - Skunkware 7.1.1

- zlib - Unixware 7.1.3 CD

- flex - Skunkware 7.1.1

- glib - Skunkware 7.1.1

- gcc - Skunkware 7.1.1

- libc - 7.1.3.CD

- libC - 7.1.3 CD

My configure statement is:

./configure -with-libs=/usr/local/libs -with-includes=/usr/local/include
-with-template=unixware

I have some gcc related errors in config.log but it runs to completion.

gmake completes

gmake install runs

I added the user pgsql and created the data directory.

Initdb works correctly

When I get to creating the database (createdb test), I die with the error

"dynamic linker : /usr/local/pgsql/bin/psql : could not open libpq.so.3"

Killed

createdb: database creation failed

The library does exist in /usr/local/pgsql/lib.

Does this stand out as blatantly obvious as to what may be wrong?

We would like to evaluate Postgresql as an alternative to Informix.

Any light you could shed on this would be a great help.

Thanks,

Dave Dake

Do one of the following:

1) add a symlimk in /usr/lib:
ln -s /usr/local/pgsql/lib/libpq.so.3 /usr/lib/libpq.so.3

2) add a LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/local/pgsql/lib;export
LD_LIBRARY_PATH
to your /etc/profile

3) add (someway) a -R/usr/local/pgsql/lib to the link of the binaries.

I do number 2 on my 7.1.3 systems.
