I have installed version 7.3 on a Linux Red Hat 8.0 machine
I've used the configure script with the 2 options: --with-CXX --enable-odbc
I have the database running correctly in the foreground with the command:
./postmaster -D /datapath
but if I run it in the backgroud with the command:
./pg_ctl -D /datapath -l /tmp/pgsql.log start
the postmaster is running correctly and I can create a testdb database
but when I try to connect to it with the command:
psql testdb
I get the message:

and psql exits.

You haven't configured it to use ssl, but your psql seems to want it, so
it seems likely that you have a psql from some other source that is
using the libpq library you have just built and is not finding the
symbols that it wants.

Check which version of psql is being run (`which psql' or `type psql' or
`whereis psql'). Make sure your own version is found in the search path
before any other version.

Also, check to see which copy of libpq it's finding ('ldd' will help
here). You may need to adjust your library search path to find the
right libpq (see 'ldconfig').
