[Ben Fenstermaker]

First of all thanks for the help so far...looks like Henrik hit the nail on
the head here.

I have the following error message repeating over and over:
bbgen: error while loading shared libraries: libpcre.so.0: cannot open
shared object file: No such file or directory

Interestingly enough the file does exist so it must not be looking in the
correct location.
hobbit at RESMACMGMT01:~/server/bin$ ls -al /usr/local/lib/libpcre.so*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root     16 2007-05-25 09:34 /usr/local/lib/libpcre.so ->
libpcre.so.0.0.1
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root     16 2007-05-25 09:34 /usr/local/lib/libpcre.so.0
-> libpcre.so.0.0.1
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 232485 2007-05-25 09:34
/usr/local/lib/libpcre.so.0.0.1

Is there an environmental variable I can set to change this?

Obviously no love with this command:
hobbit at RESMACMGMT01:~/server/bin$ ./bbcmd bbgen --recentgifs
--subpagecolumns=2 --report
2007-05-29 08:56:26 Using default environment file
/home/hobbit/server/etc/hobbitserver.cfg
bbgen: error while loading shared libraries: libpcre.so.0: cannot open
shared object file: No such file or directory

Now hobbitserver.cfg hints to the fact that you may be able to point to
libraries in the config file:
-snip-
# Some systems need extra settings e.g. to locate run-time libraries.
# You can add these extra settings here:
-snip-

Is this possibly what I am looking for to point to the libpcre.so.0 library?
If so what is the syntax for adding it?
