Psycopg2 image not found

Question

Trying to setup postgres with the postgres mac app and hit this error, which I haven\'t been able to solve. Any thoughts?

    ImportError: dlopen(/Users/Crai         


        

Answer 1

This problem cost me the whole morning to solve. I found the discussion on http://initd.org/psycopg/articles/2010/11/11/links-about-building-psycopg-mac-os-x/ really helpful. Thanks to Jurie's answer, the solution to my problem (in Mac) is as below:

1. Install openssl 1.0.0 using brew:

    brew install openssl
   

2. using the following command:

   export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/Cellar/openssl/**1.0.1x**/lib
   

   replace 1.0.1x part with your current version. For me it is 1.0.1h.

Hope this helps!

EDIT: After one day, I found that the second command has to be entered every time when needing to connect to database, so not a permanent solution to this problem.
