Thanks for the excellent advice. After editting ld.so.conf and running
ldconfig everything worked fine<br>
Best regards,<br>

<pre wrap="">Greetings,
I just downloaded and compiled grass-6.0.0beta1. At first I got
configure errors because gdal libraries couldn't be found. After I
installed gdal 1.2.5 (without grass support because no matter what
directories I specified, it couldn't find the grass libraries), there
were no errors after configure and make. When I started grass60, it
loaded the initial tcl menu where I chose my mapset but then I got the
following error:
Error in startup script: ps.map: error while loading shared libraries:
libgdal.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
while executing
"exec ps.map -p"
(procedure "DmPrint::init" line 14)
invoked from within
"DmPrint::init"
(procedure "main" line 31)
invoked from within
"main $argc $argv"
(file "/usr/local/grass-6.0.0beta1/etc/dm/d.m.tcl" line 890)
The puzzling thing is the shared library libgdal.so.1 seems to be alive
and well. Can anyone tell me how to fix this? I looked in the files
indicated but I don't know enough to know what really went wrong.
Thanks in advance for any advice.

This is a Linux system, isn't it?
Does "alive and well" mean that it is in /usr/local/lib, or that it is in
/usr/local/lib (or wherever) and that directory is in /etc/ld.so.conf and
you've run ldconfig since installing gdal (sorry if this is obvious, but
it's a hole lots of us fall into, even if we do know better)? Editing
/etc/ld.so.conf and running ldconfig are for root. Does running gdalinfo
from the shell prompt work:
$ gdalinfo --version
GDAL 1.2.5.0, released 2004/11/22
for example?
Good luck,
Roger
