Dave,
Your suggestion worked. As it turned out I was missing two directories.
# find . -iname libpq.so
./usr/local/pgsql/lib/libpq.so
./usr/local/pgsql-8.0.0/lib/libpq.so
So I added /usr/local/pgsql/lib/ to the end of /etc/ld.so.conf
# ldconfig
When I tried to run pgadmin again I was told pgadmin3: error while loading shared libraries: libwx_gtk2u_xrc-2.6.so.0:
cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Figuring that your suggestion would apply a second time
# find . -iname libwx_gtk2u_xrc-2.6.so
./raid02/export02/downloads/wxGTK/wxGTK-2.6.2/lib/libwx_gtk2u_xrc-2.6.so
./usr/local/lib/libwx_gtk2u_xrc-2.6.so
So I added /usr/local/lib/ to the end of /etc/ld.so.conf
# ldconfig
The next time I tried to run pgadmin it worked!!
Woohoo! I have successfuly compiled and installed wxWidgets and pgadmin3 on a
Red Hat Enterprise Linux v3 system! :-)
That's LUNCH people! :-)
Thanks for your help.
Kind Regards,
Keith
