Обсуждение: configure --with-pam

Hi all,

Have any of you successfully configured Linux-PAM with Postgresql? When I
run ./configure --with-pam, I get the following error:

<snip>
checking for inflate in -lz... (cached) yes
checking for library containing fdatasync... (cached) none required
checking for pam_start in -lpam... no
configure: error: library 'pam' is required for PAM

Please help. TIA

Eugene

Yes I have setup all Postgres servers with pam. Are you sure that the pam
libraries are correctly installed on your system?

From the above I cannot see why configure fails to locate the pam
libraries - can you show us the contents of config.log (or at least the
relevant parts) after calling configure --with-pam?

What does "ls -l /usr/lib/libpam* /lib/libpam*" show?

Best regards

Alternately (linux-ish only):

ldconfig -v | grep 'pam'

Hmm, it passes configure for me, using PG 7.2 on RH Linux 7.2, which
according to rpm contains

$ rpm -qa | grep pam
pam-0.75-14
pam_smb-1.1.6-2
pam-devel-0.75-14
pam_krb5-1.46-1

What PG and PAM versions are you using?  Does ldconfig know where
libpam.so is?

The message is in the error... Maybe your system (you don't say what
flavour) doesn't have the pam libraries installed. What does
  rpm -qi pam
say?

Thank you all for the replies...

I finally figured out that the PAM was not installed correctly, in the /lib
directory, all the libpam*.so was pointing to libpam*.so.0, instead of
libpam*.so.0.75.... That does it...

Thank you all again!!
