Hello:

I am having problem interfacing the postgres database with the 
frontend(libpq),i.e using C.Database runs fine.

 PROBLEMS ARE:
            1)When compiling the C-program given in the 
             example for connecting the database to the
             frontend using
       $gcc -I /home/guest/pgsql/include test.c
  
       output:
            /tmp/ccwWFbHo.o:In function 'exit_nicely':
            /tmp/ccwWFbHo.o(.text+0x8):undefined referance to 'PQfinish'
            
            /tmp/ccwWFbHo.o:In function 'main':
            /tmp/ccwWFbHo.o(.text+0x66):undefined referance to
'PQsetdblogin'
                                                               
            /tmp/ccwWFbHo.o(.text+0x66):undefined referance to 'PQstatus'
           

...............................................................
            
            2)When I want to use the command
              $createlang c (dbname)
            OUTPUT:
                   createlang:missing required argument PGLIB directory.            
                                           

...............................................................

              
            I shall be grateful if you reply giving me suggestion to solve
            the problems.

   Thanking you 

   With regards
   
    Simanchal           

   c/o Prof L M Patnaik

Try something like this
        $gcc -I /home/guest/pgsql/include -L /home/guest/pgsql/lib -lpq test.c

I think that postgres libraries are stored in /home/guest/pgsql/lib.

You don't have specified the path to PGLIB. createlang can't find them.
Try set environment variable PGLIB (e.g. in bash:
export PGLIB=/home/guest/pgsql/lib). Or append this path to environment
variable LD_LIBRARY_PATH.

I had the same problem. You have to include -lq on the command line.
Futhermore, I had to put it on the end of the line, because the compiler
collects unknown symbols first and then resolves it with the -l library
switch. So I made a little Makefile like this one:

#Little Makefile for making whatever source file directly to an executable.
override CFLAGS += -I/usr/include/postgresql

% : %.c
        $(CC) $(CFLAGS) $(LDFLAGS) -o $@ $< -lpq

% : %.c++
        g++ $(CFLAGS) $(LDFLAGS) -o $@ $< -lpq++

#end

Err,
1: please post this kind of question to the appropriate list
(dbi-dev has _nothing_ to do with this);
2: please post to the list first, not to a semi-random group
of individuals as well; because
3: speaking for myself I have no working knowledge of phppgadmin.

Having said that it looks like some kind of version mismatch is taking place.
IIRC pg_relcheck does not exist in PostreSQL 7.3. google or a search
of the Postgres mailing list archives might help you further.

Please follow up to pgsql-interfaces only (try subscribing if you're not
already).
