Hello,
I'm trying to pgaccess to run. I pulled down the pgaccess files from
www.flex.ro
and I also download libpgtcl and libpq.so.1 from flex. I put both of
these file in /usr/lib
and made sure that by PATH point to /usr/lib. I then cd to
/usr/local/pgaccess, this is
where I unziped the files, and ran wish -f ./pgaccess.tcl.
The following is the error I got:

Error in startup script: couldn't load file "libpgtcl.so": libpq.so.1:
cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
    while executing
"load libpgtcl.so"
    (procedure "main" line 6)
    invoked from within
"main $argc $argv"
    (file "./pgaccess.tcl" line 4954)

any help would be appreciated.
Wayne

I was wondering if I need an environment variable for wish?
If so, can someone tell me what that is?

No. No environment variable is needed for wish !

You have been lucky :-)
My Internet link has been broken for about 1 week and when it works it
crashes at every 10 minutes !

On my RedHat 5.2 system I am usually placing them (or symbolic links) in
/lib

Try making some symbolic links to libpgtcl.so and libpq.so (also
libpq.so.x)  into /lib directory

It should work!

You need to run "ldconfig -v" to update the shared library cache
database...

        Thomas answered your question, but I should also point out
that changing the PATH environment variable as you did isn't necessary,
and won't make a difference when loading dynamic (shared) libraries.
