Complete newbie here, trying to set up Django to work with PostgreSQL.
I am using Ubuntu 14.10 and I have also installed PostgreSQL 9.5.
When I run pip install psycopg2
in terminal I get the following error:
Collecting psycopg2
Using cached psycopg2-2.6.1.tar.gz
Complete output from command python setup.py egg_info:
running egg_info

warning: manifest_maker: standard file '-c' not found
Error: pg_config executable not found.
Please add the directory containing pg_config to the PATH
or specify the full executable path with the option:
python setup.py build_ext --pg-config /path/to/pg_config build ...
or with the pg_config option in 'setup.cfg'.
----------------------------------------
Command "python setup.py egg_info" failed with error code 1 in /tmp/pip-build-la8dJp/psycopg2
I know that directory containing pg_config is /opt/PostgreSQL/9.5/bin/pg_config
but I don't know how to add this directory to PATH to get my psycopg2 installed. Or any another method to get psycopg2 installed so that I can interact with my PostgreSQL.
Thanking you in advance.
