thanks Tim,
I ran yum whatprovides and received "no matches found". I believe that pgadmin3 uses wxWidgets (according to the web site) but I can not find them in installable rpm format for Red Hat/Oracle Linux 6.x on their web site. the gtk libraries are already installed on my Linux, as is postgres 9.4. The errors from pgadmin3 installation appear to be specific to libwx_gtk* libraries, which are probably part of wxWidgets.org. I find this hard to believe that to just install and use pgadmin3 (as a DBA, not as a C++ programmer!) on Red Hat/Oracle Linux I must be building complete C++ application from sources using all sorts of disparate libraries. wxWidgets, I am sure, will have a bunch of other prerequisites, its like a dog chasing its tail. I just want to install and use pgadmin3 on one of the most common Linux platforms, RHEL. I expected smooth sailing, the PostgreSQL 9.4 was certainly easy to install and get going on RHEL/OL. Alas, not pgadmin4. What have I missed? Is there a step by step document describing how to do this (i failed to find it)? Is the prerequisite for pdagmin3 *installation* requires mastery of all of: Linux, C++ and wsWidgets? Is pgadmin3 not a widely used tool by PostgeSQL DBA community which is why there is such lack of good documentation on how to install it? Thank you for reading thus far.

Yuri the 'gtk' part suggests graphics libraries to me. Since Oracle linux is built on RedHat you can usefully use 'yum' package manager to search that distribution's installed repositories for your file with: sudo yum whatprovides \*libwx\* You may want to pipe that to less since it may give a long answer. Scan down for packages that will provide your libwx* file(s) and then install with 'yum install (package)'. Good luck! Tim Clarke On 28/03/15 01:14, Yuri Budilov wrote:
