php mapscript with postgresql 8.1

[Oliver Lichte]

Hallo Steff,

it could be there is a link which refers to nothing named libpq.so.3 on your 
system. If it exists you must remove it and repeat compilation. As a really 
straight-forward work-around you could create an symbolic link 'libpq.so.3' 
refering to libpq.so.4 by 
ln -s libpq.so.3 libpq.so.4 
within the according directory (/usr/lib I guess). In this case you must not 
compile again, but there is no guarantee that it works.

Regards,
Oliver
