i just installed postgresql7.1 on a freebsd 4.3-stable machine. and i
am able to start it with:
postmaster -D data
but when i try to:
createdb test
i get the following error:
/usr/libexec/ld-elf.so.1: Shared object "libpq.so.2" not found

Every time you boot, you need to run ldconfig to tell it where to find
your shared libs. I use this startup script called
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/00postgres-client.sh:
--cut here--
#!/bin/sh
case "$1" in
start)
/sbin/ldconfig -m /usr/local/pgsql/lib
;;
stop)
;;
*)
echo ""
echo "Usage: `basename $0` { start | stop }"
echo ""
exit 64
;;
esac
--cut here--
