Thread: Wrong dynamic link ../../../src/interfaces/libpq/libpq.sl.3

Hi

I was not getting this message befor, But now when I compile postgresql
7.4.2 on a HPUX PA m/c there is a shared dynamic library
../../../src/interfaces/libpq/libpq.sl.3. This linking was not there before.

Due to this when i run the psql binary i get the below message can someone
please help.

shmlgarlica# ./psql
/usr/lib/dld.sl: Can't open shared library:
../../../src/interfaces/libpq/libpq.sl.3

This is normal; the question is what have you done with the embedded
path?  An out-of-the-box build should generate something like this:

$ chatr ~postgres/version74/bin/psql
/home/postgres/version74/bin/psql:
         shared executable
         shared library dynamic path search:
             SHLIB_PATH     disabled  second
             embedded path  enabled   first  /home/postgres/version74/lib
         internal name:
             psql
         shared library list:
             dynamic   ../../../src/interfaces/libpq/libpq.sl.3
             dynamic   /usr/lib/libc.1
             dynamic   /usr/local/lib/libz.sl
             dynamic   /usr/lib/libdld.1
         shared library binding:
             deferred

BTW, if you are building 7.4.2 from source today, you are nuts.  Current
release in that branch is 7.4.17.
