Re: Psql errors

Well, this is sort of interesting. I'm running Solaris 10. The problem was that I didn't export all of the necessary shared libraries. What's interesting is that it seems to matter what order these are in, in the path. If I export LD_LIBRARY_PATH and I put the library identified as the "libdir" in the arguments for ./configure first, it works, if I put it at that end it doesn't.

I just installed Postgres 8.3.4.  I have an instance of 8.2.4 running

template1=# \l
ld.so.1: psql: fatal: relocation error: file /db02/postgres/bin/psql:
symbol pg_valid_server_encoding_id: referenced symbol not found

pg_valid_server_encoding_id is exported by the 8.3 version of libpq.so,
but not by 8.2.  So the problem here is that your 8.3 psql is binding
to the wrong version of libpq.so.  You didn't say what the platform
is, but the issue is probably related to the search path used to find
shared libraries.

It would probably work to just overwrite the 8.2 library with 8.3
--- it should be backwards compatible.  (Better save a backup copy
in case not, of course.)
