Hi Chris,
I've been googling around the web, and my problem appears to be fairly
common.. although I haven't seen a good explanation for it.. I've
installed PG 8.3.1.. and postgis.
Looks like everything installs correctly.. when I run make check, I get
the (somewhat common) can't load share lib $libdir/
psql:lwpostgis.sql:44: NOTICE: type "histogram2d" is not yet defined
DETAIL: Creating a shell type definition.
psql:lwpostgis.sql:44: ERROR: could not access file
"$libdir/liblwgeom.so.1": No such file or directory
**NOTE: when I run ldconfig -v liblwgeom.so.1 shows up.. but the
original error was "$libdir/liblwgeom" not found.. I actually modified
lwpostgis.sql to use liblwgeom.so.1 What should it be ?
lwpostgis.sql was fine it its original form using $libdir (it get
substituted by PostgreSQL with the correct server library directory at
load time).
This error seems common enough that there would be a pretty simple
explanation for it.. how I can be sure that the libraries were built
correctly?
Kind of stumped right now.. not really clear what it's supposed to be.
ANY help would be appreciated.. thanks
If liblwgeom.so exists, this error normally means that liblwgeom can't
find one or more of its dependent libraries such as GEOS and/or PROJ.4.
Check your ld.so.conf to make sure it includes /usr/local/lib if you
built by hand, and then don't forget to restart the PostgreSQL server so
it can pick up the changes.
HTH,
Mark.
