Hi,
I tryed to use some functions from the Pg-module from a CGI-script,
started on a Apache-server. I always get only an error-message, that
Dynaloader can not resolve the symbols from Pg, althrough I am able to
start the scripts directly from the shell without problems.
Did anyone knows problems like that?

Lack of an appropriate environment variable setting in the CGI context
is probably the problem --- LD_LIBRARY_PATH (or your platform's
equivalent) is the first thing I'd check for. You may also find that
your scripts are depending on other things in your shell environment,
like PGHOST, PGPASSWORD, etc...

Try adding these two lines to your apache httpd.conf file:
SetEnv LD_LIBRARY_PATH /usr/local/pgsql/lib
PassEnv LD_LIBRARY_PATH
Change "/usr/local/pgsql/lib" to where ever your postgres lib directory is.

Hi Wolfgang,
I had the same error messages some time ago, are you running RedHat 5.2,
too?
If so, go to
http://www.redhat.com/support/docs/rhl/rh52-errata-general.html#perl and
download the updated perl RPM. The new RPM fixes issues that perl had
with some CGI scripts.
After upgrading, I created a link in /usr/lib/perl5/i386-linux/5.00405
-> /usr/lib/perl5/i386-linux/5.00404 and everything works properly.
