[postgis-users] Installation with Proj

[jrom]

Hi Andy,

After ./configure did you recompile postgis without any problem ?
If the compilation ran well then you should check under /usr/local/lib
if you have libproj.so.0 file that should be a link to the current
libproj.

For example a typical proj 5 installation you should have something
like this under /usr/local/lib :
lrwxrwxrwx 1 gass gass      16 2005-09-13 14:47 libproj.so -> libproj.so.0.5.0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 gass gass      16 2005-09-13 14:47 libproj.so.0 -> libproj.so.0.5.0
-rwxr-xr-x 1 gass gass  657462 2005-09-13 14:47 libproj.so.0.5.0

As you can see libproj.so.0 is a dynamic link to libproj.so.0.5.0.
If this link is not present you can create it

Hope this help
