postgres in 'C' - can't get started
Started by Graeme Stobbartabout 25 years ago2 messagesbugs
Red Hat 7, Vanilla install postgres from RPM's
Create very simple program to open/close (cut down vsn of example 1)
Compile using libpq.a
Follwing error...
/usr/lib/libpq.a (fe-auth.a): In function `pg_password_sendauth`:
fe-auth.o(.text+0x30): undefined reference to `crypt`
New to postgres, have I missed something? Reply, however terse, much appreciated.
Thanks

On some platforms you need to specify -lcrypt explicitly when linking.
(Sometimes crypt() is in the standard library, sometimes not.)
