In PostgreSQL 8.0.3 release libpq major version number is changed and this caused libpq dependent programs to break. (Further information: http://pgfoundry.org/pipermail/pgsqlrpms-hackers/2005-April/000197.html) If I'd return to your situation, it's not so feasible to just move the libpq.so.4 shared file as a solution. AFAIC, you should re-compile PHP using correct --with-pgsql directory. Just pass the --prefix parameter of PostgreSQL ./configure script to PHP's ./configure script. For instance: postgresql-8.0.3# export PGSQL_PREFIX=/usr postgresql-8.0.3# ./configure --prefix=$PGSQL_PREFIX ... ... php-5.0.4# ./configure ... --with-pgsql=$PGSQL_PREFIX Hope this helps. Regards.
