Hi, This is my first mail, so I hope I am doing this right. I am a complete linux novice and I have spent close to 6 hours with this problem and read the posts at for example: http://pgfoundry.org/pipermail/pgpool-general/2006-October/000482.html
I am trying to write install pgpool-II and I am trying to do the ./configure step, but i just keep getting "configure: error: libpq is not installed or libpq is old". I have PostgreSQL 8.2.3 installed (I am actually using the EC2 image described here: http://developer.amazonwebservices.com/connect/entry.jspa?categoryID=101&externalID=869 I ran a locate libpq as this is my best guess of finding its path: [EMAIL PROTECTED] /]# locate libpq /home/journyx/jt/pd/Linux/pgres/doc/postgresql/html/libpq-async.html /home/journyx/jt/pd/Linux/pgres/doc/postgresql/html/libpq-build.html /home/journyx/jt/pd/Linux/pgres/doc/postgresql/html/libpq-connect.html /home/journyx/jt/pd/Linux/pgres/doc/postgresql/html/libpq-control.html /home/journyx/jt/pd/Linux/pgres/doc/postgresql/html/libpq-copy.html /home/journyx/jt/pd/Linux/pgres/doc/postgresql/html/libpq-envars.html /home/journyx/jt/pd/Linux/pgres/doc/postgresql/html/libpq-example.html /home/journyx/jt/pd/Linux/pgres/doc/postgresql/html/libpq-exec.html /home/journyx/jt/pd/Linux/pgres/doc/postgresql/html/libpq-fastpath.html /home/journyx/jt/pd/Linux/pgres/doc/postgresql/html/libpq-files.html /home/journyx/jt/pd/Linux/pgres/doc/postgresql/html/libpq-notify.html /home/journyx/jt/pd/Linux/pgres/doc/postgresql/html/libpq-threading.html /home/journyx/jt/pd/Linux/pgres/doc/postgresql/html/libpq-trace.html /home/journyx/jt/pd/Linux/pgres/doc/postgresql/html/libpq.html /home/journyx/jt/pd/Linux/pgres/doc/postgresql/html/lo-libpq.html /home/journyx/jt/pd/Linux/pgres/include/libpq /home/journyx/jt/pd/Linux/pgres/include/libpq/libpq-fs.h /home/journyx/jt/pd/Linux/pgres/include/postgresql/internal/libpq /home/journyx/jt/pd/Linux/pgres/include/postgresql/internal/libpq/pqcomm.h /home/journyx/jt/pd/Linux/pgres/include/postgresql/internal/libpq-int.h /home/journyx/jt/pd/Linux/pgres/include/libpq-fe.h /home/journyx/jt/pd/Linux/pgres/lib/libpq.so /home/journyx/jt/pd/Linux/pgres/lib/libpq.so.3 /home/journyx/jt/pd/Linux/pgres/lib/libpq.so.3.0 /home/journyx/jt/pd/Linux/pgres/lib/libpq.a /usr/lib/libpq.so.5 /usr/lib/libpq.so.5.0 /usr/share/locale/af/LC_MESSAGES/libpq.mo /usr/share/locale/cs/LC_MESSAGES/libpq.mo /usr/share/locale/de/LC_MESSAGES/libpq.mo /usr/share/locale/es/LC_MESSAGES/libpq.mo /usr/share/locale/fr/LC_MESSAGES/libpq.mo /usr/share/locale/hr/LC_MESSAGES/libpq.mo /usr/share/locale/it/LC_MESSAGES/libpq.mo /usr/share/locale/ko/LC_MESSAGES/libpq.mo /usr/share/locale/nb/LC_MESSAGES/libpq.mo /usr/share/locale/pl/LC_MESSAGES/libpq.mo /usr/share/locale/pt_BR/LC_MESSAGES/libpq.mo /usr/share/locale/ru/LC_MESSAGES/libpq.mo /usr/share/locale/sk/LC_MESSAGES/libpq.mo /usr/share/locale/sl/LC_MESSAGES/libpq.mo /usr/share/locale/sv/LC_MESSAGES/libpq.mo /usr/share/locale/tr/LC_MESSAGES/libpq.mo /usr/share/locale/zh_CN/LC_MESSAGES/libpq.mo /usr/share/locale/zh_TW/LC_MESSAGES/libpq.mo [EMAIL PROTECTED] /]# I then tried to run the following commands: ./configure --with-pgsql=/home/journyx/jt/pd/Linux/pgres/include/libpq/ ./configure --with-pgsql=/home/journyx/jt/pd/Linux/pgres/include/postgresql/internal/ ./configure --with-pgsql=/home/journyx/jt/pd/Linux/pgres/include/postgresql/internal/libpq/ ./configure --with-pgsql=/home/journyx/jt/pd/Linux/pgres/include/ ./configure --with-pgsql=/home/journyx/jt/pd/Linux/pgres/lib/ ./configure --with-pgsql=/usr/lib/ All resulting in the same error message. I also tried various other parameters without success. My next steps from now would be to use the most popular tool in any novice's toolbox: To do random stuff. If you would like access to the linux box itself I can send you the login information. Regards, David
