Hello Pedro

It wasn't able to find the library (or AIX seems to call them modules) libsvn_client-1.so . It probably expects them to be in /opt/subversion-1.5.4/lib .

The following command shows the libraries svn uses and where it found them, I guess it shows that it can't find all libsvn_*.so:

$ ldd `which svn`
   libsvn_client-1.so.0 => /usr/local/svn-1.4.5/lib/libsvn_client-1.so.0
   libsvn_wc-1.so.0 =>     /usr/local/svn-1.4.5/lib/libsvn_wc-1.so.0
   libsvn_ra-1.so.0 =>     /usr/local/svn-1.4.5/lib/libsvn_ra-1.so.0
 ... a lot more libs

You could try adding /subversion/aix/lib to the library path:

$ LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/subversion/aix/lib svn help

If that works you can add that dir permanently to the library path.

Another way is creating the dir /opt/subversion-1.5.4 and a symlink
/opt/subversion-1.5.4/lib pointing to /subversion/aix/lib .

Or you could compile subversion with --prefix=/subversion/aix .

Since this is a usage question it belongs to the us...@subversion.apache.org mailing list, please ask there if you need more help.

Hi,

Getting the following error after install svn 1.5.4 on aix server:
Just running "svn help":
   Could not load program svn:
Dependent module libsvn_client-1.so could not be loaded. Could not load module libsvn_client-1.so.

We don't know the cause of the error.
Is the aix 1.5.4 install requires to live at /opt/subversion-1.5.4
directory?

Since we have installed subversion on different directory. Find below
the way how we have setup the diff subversion UNIX versions:

We have all UNIX svn instance flavors on filesystem
ecbclrg12:/subversion like:
aix           install-pkgs  linux         linux64       lost+found
solaris10     solaris9

On one of our aix servers we had mounted this filesystem to /subversion
directory
Then setup a link to 1.5.4 version under /subversion/aix :
lrwxrwxrwx    1 69360    78270            16 Mar 16 11:56 subversion ->
subversion-1.5.4
drwxr-xr-x    7 69360    78270          1024 Mar 16 11:53
subversion-1.5.4

We added on this aix server to the beginning of the PATH :
/subversion/aix/subversion/bin

Thanks
