Hi,

I keep getting...  "ERROR: could not access file "$libdir/xxid": No such
file or directory" whenever I create a new cluster. I've checked the pg
directory and the xxid files are in shared folder.

I've installed PG 8.4 and Slony-I 2.0.2-1 properly using one-click-installer
and stack builder. I've checked Options.. in PgAdmin and the Slony-I path is
in /share directory under Pg installation. I have previous installation of
Pg 8.3 but I uninstalled it properly using the bundled uninstaller.

After doing all this. I'm still getting the error, any help will be highly
appreciated!

If you're o windows,uninstall (don't just disable) it and see if the
problem goes away

Yes, that's how I did it uninstall everything first then install. I use Windows Vista

Whoops, I meant if you're on windows, uninstall any antivirus then see
if the problem goes away

Too early in the morning apparently.

The "no such file" complaint might refer to some library needed by the
xxid DLL, rather than that DLL itself. On Linux I'd suggest using ldd
to check xxid's dependencies, but I dunno what incantation to use on
Windows.

Dependency Walker (depends.exe) from www.dependencywalker.com (free).

Yet another tool the OS and the Windows standard dev tools fail to include.

Craig Ringer,

I tried scanning "slony1_funcs.dll" for dependencies but for some reasons it cannot find POSTGRES.EXE, the files is encrypted if I try to open it so I can't set the directory. I even tried copying POSTGRES.EXE in the lib folder where slony1_funcs.dll resides but of course still gets the same error.

Can this really a factor for the Slony to throw that error?

Hi Scott,

I tried doing your suggestion, uninstalling antivirus but it won't work either. I also tried doing the same in an XP machine but the error is the same.

Thanks!

Jorge
