Your system loader needs to know to look there, so you have to tell it, since this is not one of the default library directories. How you do it varies with the system you are using; for Linux, use the command ldconfig (read its man page for details). Other systems may have their equivalent, or may have nothing (in which case you can perhaps use the -rpath link option to gcc to tell the program where to look for the shared library). As a last resort, set the environment variable LD_LIBRARY_PATH before running the program. -- Oliver Elphick Oliver.Elphick@lfix.co.uk Isle of Wight http://www.lfix.co.uk/oliver PGP key from public servers; key ID 32B8FAA1 ======================================== "My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me; And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand."

Yes, the file is in /usr/local/pgsql/lib and I've added this directory to my /etc/ld.so.conf and run /sbin/ldconfig > As a last resort, set the environment variable LD_LIBRARY_PATH before > running the program. AHA!. adding the LD_LIBRARY_PATH to my .bash_profile seems to have done the trick Thanks very much for the help -------------------------------------------------------------------- Kevin Heflin | ShreveNet, Inc. | Ph:318.222.2638 x103 VP/Mac Tech | 333 Texas St #619 | FAX:318.221.6612 kheflin@shreve.net | Shreveport, LA 71101 | http://www.shreve.net --------------------------------------------------------------------
