Greetings,

I'm trying to build 7.3.4 and I've come across two problems, one during
the configure and the other afterward.

Problem 1)

Trying to build with openssl support gives this:

./configure --with-openssl --enable-odbc --with-perl --enable-multibyte

...
checking openssl/ssl.h usability... no
checking openssl/ssl.h presence... no
checking for openssl/ssl.h... no
configure: error: header file <openssl/ssl.h> is required for OpenSSL

[root(at)brahma postgresql-7.3.4]# locate openssl/ssl.h
/usr/include/openssl/ssl.h

I've tried many flavors of --with-openssl=/usr/include but with no luck.

I've removed the --with-openssl, because it isn't needed immediately,
and everything configured and compiled fine.

2) I cannot figure out how to createlang plperl and plperlu. I'm getting
this message:

[postgres(at)brahma postgres]$ /usr/local/pgsql/bin/createlang plperlu chris
ERROR: Load of file /usr/local/pgsql/lib/plperl.so failed: libperl.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
createlang: language installation failed

The INSTALL docs state that I must have a full install of Perl (which I
do: perl-5.8.0 via RedHat's rpm) and that it Postgres won't be able to
compile if it isn't a shared object. Since Postgres compiled, can I
assume that the Perl install is ok?

My machine is a P4 running RedHat 9.0. Any info would be greatly
appreciated.

Cheers,

Chris
