Biblioteca no cargada: /usr/local/lib/libpq.5.4.dylib

Question

Estoy trabajando en una aplicación de rieles.
PostgreSQL instalado utilizando PostgreSQL-9.1.2-1-OSX.DMG
Instalado pg gema.
Luego, cuando ejecuté rake db:create Obtención del siguiente error -

dlopen (/users/sathishvc/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-head@knome-vivacious/gems/pg-0.12.2/lib/pg_ext.bundle, 9): Biblioteca no cargada: /usr/local/lib/libpq.5.4.dylib

verificada si existe /usr/local/lib/libpq.5.4.dylib, no.No lo hace.
Por lo tanto, debe existir en otro lugar del sistema o no sé, si necesito instalar cualquier otra pieza de software para esto.

¿Asesoramiento a alguien por favor?

Answer 1

Some time after I posted this question, I found that libpq.5.4.dylib resides in /Library/PostgreSQL/9.1/lib/.
So, I created the following link:
lrwxr-xr-x 1 sathishvc admin 43 Jan 28 23:40 /usr/local/lib/libpq.5.4.dylib -> /Library/PostgreSQL/9.1/lib/libpq.5.4.dylib.

This solved the problem then.

Answer 2

if you have upgraded PostgreSQL with homebrew (brew update && brew upgrade), then simply uninstall the pg gem:

gem uninstall pg
bundle install

and the path will be corrected for you. No need to uninstall the whole PostgreSQL cluster.

Answer 3

I was running into this issue after switching over to the PostgresApp and removing the existing PostgreSQL version via

brew remove postgres

I ultimately solved the problem by re-installing PostgreSQL via

brew install postgres

I was able to retain the use of the PostgresApp by adding the following to my .bash_profile

export PATH="/Applications/Postgres.app/Contents/MacOS/bin:/usr/local/bin:$PATH"

You can also try running:

brew doctor

As it alerted me to this as well as some additional errors.

This error was also affecting my ability to use the Paperclip gem as it was causing ImageMagick to fail with the same error.

(Using OS X 10.8.2)

Answer 4

In my case, uninstalling /reinstalling gem didn't help. But I added the PostgreSQL library path to $DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable in my ~/.bash_profile:

export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=/Library/PostgreSQL/9.3/lib:$DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH

If you also have MySQL installed, this line can look like:

export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/mysql/lib:/Library/PostgreSQL/9.3/lib:$DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH

Of course pay attention to version number in the PostgreSQL path, at the time of this writing it is 9.3. I'm using RVM, Ruby 2.0.0, pg gem 0.17.0, on Mac OS X 10.6.

Answer 5

Try brew prune and then reinstall

Answer 6

this is not a direct answer to the question but can arise frequently

Two additional cases that might be of interest if you have upgraded PostgreSQL with homebrew:

1. you have proceeded in the past to some pruning of gem versions
2. your application is older and cannot take a recent version of pg (I have a rails 2 app failing with pg 0.17 and nearly killing the server: the mkmr.log increases exponentially ...try 200GB! )

you may actually have numerous versions of pg to rely upon

when you run

gem uninstall pg

if you have more than one version, the system will ask which version you wish to delete. But that list may be useful to you! As an alternative to awenkhh's answer you may stop there and reset your gems to an acceptable version
