Re: PHP Install with Postgres support.

Stuart:

I had some problems as well, and I believe what I did is this:

edit /etc/ld.so.conf by appending "/usr/local/pgsql/lib" to the end of
the file

Then I believe you may have to run "ldconfig" (man ldconfig for help)

If this doesn't work, you may try adding the following to /etc/profile
(or the .bash_profile file in your home dir)

LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/pgsql/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH

You should modify the paths to point at the directory that contains the
pgsql library files on your system.

I'm a novice linux user, so I'm not sure what any of this does really.
But it seemed to work to get PHP installed with pgsql support.

Good Luck.
