Mark, not sure what you mean by "tweak your PostgreSQL startup script".
Happy to try that if I did.
I copied the postgis-1.4.so <http://postgis-1.4.so> lib from my PostGIS
build area to /opt/PostgreSQL/8.4/lib/postgresql. No help
I checked and the geos/proj.4 libs appear to be in /usr/local/lib.
I set
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/PostGIS/postgis-1.4.0/postgis:/usr/local/lib:/usr/lib
No help
The reason you need to tweak the statup script is because if you start
PostgreSQL using "service postgresql start" or "/etc/init.d/postgresql
start" then the script will switch to the postgres user in order to
launch the server.
Hence even if you set your LD_LIBRARY_PATH as above and restart
PostgreSQL, this will only affect the current user and will not be
propagated to the postgres user. So you'll need to alter your startup
script to ensure that LD_LIBRARY_PATH is being set correctly for the
postgres user when PostgreSQL is launched.
HTH,
Mark.
