Hello... I'm a newbie to postgresql. I've tried a few times to install readline 4.3, followed by postgresql 7.23, and still the commmand line history in pgsql doesn't function. I've used the --with-includes and --with-libraries configure options to point to where the readline header and shared object files are but with similar disappointing results. The readline .so files are in /usr/local/lib - how can I get postgresql to recognize readline is installed? Redhat 7.3 is the os.
The output of ldd -v /usr/local/pgsql/bin/postgres does not find any readline files.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
/j-p.
