<br>To be clear: I'm NOT installing this in the system directory. I'm running "make check" before "make install".<br><br>It appears that the system's postgresql instance (running as user postgres) does not have permission to access the non-installed .so files in my directory (owned by me). Wouldn't it make sense to have "make check" create a directory structure with world read/execute permissions if it's planning on setting up this kind of situation? <br>
<br>I'll play with this more later...Thanks for the pointers!<br><br>Bryce<br><br> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;">

I have a different error now, having to do with the fact that the plpgsql
language comes pre-installed on Postgresql 9.0 databases. So: spatial functions
never get added and the very first test fails...<br>
