Re: "ld.so.1: /usr/local/pgsql/bin/initdb: fatal:

setting it like you mention below will set it for this session only. Setting it in your .profile (Is solaris 10 still using /bin/sh and not bash as the default shell?) should make it available for each login. I don't have a solaris 10 machine to look at right now, but in most linux distros, you can set system wide environemnt variables in /etc/profile.d, I would guess that Solaris 10 has a similar setup.

Also, on linux machines, there is an /etc/ld.so.conf which has contains the system wide search path for shared libs, solaris 10 has something similar in /var/ld for 32bit and 64bit libs. You can change this by running the crle command (Configure Runtime Linker Environment).

In solaris 10 there is no bin.sh file and /etc/profile.d does exit either. However there is a file called "profile" in /etc/

I can find "ld.so.1" in /usr/lib/ and /lib/amd64 and /lib/ should this go in my LD_LIBRARY_PATH as well? I cannot find a /etc/ld.so.conf


/var/ld for 32bit and 64bit libs. You can change this by running the crle command (Configure Runtime Linker Environment).

from the man pages for "crle" for 32-bit objects there is a default configuration file /var/ld/ld.config and for 64-bit objects the default configuration file is /var/ld/64/ld.config.

This all sounds good as I was warned when installing some software that /usr/local/lib/libgcc_s.so and /usr/local/lib/libc++.so and /usr/local/lib/libc++.so.5 are no longer a symbolic link

I will have to see how to use crle.
