[postgis-users] error running postgis.sql

[Chris Faulkner]

HI

I am on RedHat 9.0. I just replaced all occurences of $libdir with
/usr/local/pgsql/lib and it all went it OK, seemingly. I was (and still am)
a little worried that the failure of $libdir might be indicative of a deeper
problem and editing postgis.sql might not be getting to the cause of it.

If you have to edit $libdir, I would have expected the install guide to say
something. I am hoping that the make process that creates postgis.sql didn't
evaluate $libdir.

Any other feedback from anyone ?


Chris

On cygwin - I've never been successful in getting that to work so I just
change $libdir in the postgis.sql with the path to the lib folder e.g.

/lib

Hello

I have successfully built, installed postgres 7.3.2 and postgis 0.7.5. I am
using the template1 database, createlang worked OK.

When I run postgis.sql, I get this

ERROR - stat failed on file '$libdir/libpostgis... '

when it is running the first 2d histogram CREATE FUNCTION command in
postgis.sql.

The shared library it wants is installed, within a location on the
LD_LIBRARY_PATH when I started postmaster and psql.

Is $libdir a built-in variable. How and when is it set ?

Thanks

Chris Faulkner
