Re: RE- Compile 7.1.3 on SCO OpenServer 5.0.6a

Thanks for the previous responces they have helped me in the right
direction.

I am playing with it at the moment.
So far I've edited
./src/include/port/sco.h and added

> #define NOFILE            110
>
./src/Makefile.shlib and added

This gets me a compile and an install. Postmaster works and I can create
dbases and tables.
pgaccess does not work although I did have it working prior to changing
Makefile.shlib
but it was not using libpgtcl.so.

I would like to be able to use libpgtcl from my bltwish  when I
load /usr/local/pgsql/lib/libpgsql.so  I get the following error

couldn't load file "/usr/local/pgsql/lib/libpgtcl.so": dynamic linker :
/usr/local/bin/bltwish : error opening libpq.so

Figuring this looks like a pathing issue I

ln /usr/local/pgsql/lib/libpq.so /usr/lib

and the error changes to
couldn't load file "/usr/local/pgsql/lib/libpgtcl.so": dynamic linker:
/usr/local/bin/bltwish: relocation error: symbol not found: crypt

Now I've read something about crypt inrelation to this I cann't think
where.
I'll keep chipping away, if you can shed any light let me know.
