Hi all, Yesterday I installed Postgres 7.1.2 on Redhat 7.2. The install appeared to go well, but createlang doesn't work: [joeweb@rex joeweb]$ createlang pltcl joewebtest ERROR: Load of file /usr/local/pgsql-7.1.2/lib/pltcl.so failed: /usr/local/pgsql-7.1.2/lib/pltcl.so: undefined symbol: Tcl_CreateSlave createlang: language installation failed I searched google and the newsgroup archives (the search for the archives for this mailing list seems to be down, so I couldn't search here) and found several people reporting the problem, and one long-ish thread discussing it, but no solutions. Everyone who reported the problem seems to have installed 7.1.3 from an RPM. I installed 7.1.2 from source, so it can't be the RPM's fault. The one person who reported getting this to work said he built 7.1.3 from source and copied over pltcl.so and it worked; since I have already built from source I can't even try that. I had previously installed PG 7.2 in another directory and running on another port; that worked fine. I have also installed 7.1.2 on systems running a heavily upgraded version of RH 6.2, and that worked fine. So it's something about PG 7.1.x plus RH 7.2. Unfortunately I have a client requirement for this version of Postgres so I'm stuck trying to make this work. Ideas, anyone? thanks, janine -- Janine Sisk President/CEO furfly.net, LLC Mont Vernon, NH Phone: 603-672-1122
