Thanks for the quick reply. The path is correct:
# ls -l /usr/local/libxml2/include/libxml2/libxml/parser.h
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 39556 Sep 15 10:07 /usr/local/libxml2/include/libxml2/libxml/parser.h
I first used /usr/local/libxml2/include/ which did not work. Doing a find for parser.h made me change the include path.
Could possibly the version of libxml2 be an issue: 2-2.7.7 ???
Thx: Peter

so Postgres is probably looking for
/usr/local/libxml2/include/libxml2/libxml/libxml/parser.h, which I
suspect is wrong. Try removing the extra "/libxml" from the include
path.
