I don't have a problem on our Solaris. The postgres user .bashrc (what kind
of shell are you using, bourne shell?) on my system is:
USER=postgres
PGUSER=postgres
PGLIB=/www/server/pgsql/lib
PGDATA=/www/server/pgsql/data
PATH=/www/server/pgsql/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin:.
MANPATH=/usr/share/man:/www/server/pgsql/man
export PGLIB PGDATA PGHOST PGPORT PATH USER PGUSER MANPATH
I think you can add shared library path in LD_LIBRARY_PATH, but since that
environment variable isn't set on my postgres account, I would think it is
not needed.
