But, the file plpgsql.so exists in the directory, please,could you
suugestion to fix that error???.

Could it be a permissions issue? The file exists but the postgres user does not
have rights to it.

Well, first, are you really sure you know where $libdir points to?
"pg_config --pkglibdir" is the thing to check.

If the directory is right, then my guess would be that the error message
is not complaining about plpgsql.so itself, but about some other shared
library that plpgsql.so depends on. I don't know what the SCO
equivalent of ldd is, but hopefully there's something you can use to
look at a shlib's dependencies.
