ok so I have more info.


a pg_config --libdir shows me /usr/lib64

however the make install installs the pg_buffercache in /pgmoveable/ lib/postgresql



How was postgresql installed on the machine in the first place? RPM? DEB? Just guessing by the pg_config output, I'd say postgresql was installed on the server via some package management and you also have a separately compiled source tree? If you installed from package management, there usually is a contrib package which contains pg_buffercache as well as the other normal contrib modules.

Looks like they have both. there are postgres binaries in /usr/bin tied to 8.1.4 RPM's. There are also binaries in /pg825/bin tied to a postgres 8.2.5 source install.

In either case I get the same error

I go to /usr/share/pgsql/contrib installed by the postgresql- contrib-8.1.4-1.1 rpm and run /usr/bin/psql -f pg_buffercache.sql <dbname>

I also tried goint to the src tree in the contrib/pg_buffercache dir and running this:
export PATH=/pg825/bin
make (as postgres)
make install (as root)
/pg825/bin/psql -f pg_buffercache.sql <dbname>


also
/usr/bin/pg_config --libdir shows me /usr/lib64

/pg825/bin/pg_config --libdir shows me /disk1/pg825/lib


I even tried placing the pg_buffercache.so.* files from the src build in the lib dirs:
/usr/lib64
/disk1/pg825/lib
/disk1/pg825/lib/postgresql

and I still got the same error


Thoughts ?




Thoughts ?

Hi All;

I've gone into contribs/pg_buffercache and run this:

make (as postgres)
make install (as root)
psql -f pg_buffercache.sql <my_db>

when I run the psql command against my database I get this:

BEGIN
SET
psql:pg_buffercache.sql:9: ERROR: could not access file "$libdir/ pg_buffercache": No such file or directory psql:pg_buffercache.sql:15: ERROR: current transaction is aborted, commands ignored until end of transaction block psql:pg_buffercache.sql:18: ERROR: current transaction is aborted, commands ignored until end of transaction block psql:pg_buffercache.sql:19: ERROR: current transaction is aborted, commands ignored until end of transaction block
ROLLBACK



Any thoughts ?


Thanks in advance...
