10 8.889

10 8.889 pg_config is required to build psycopg2 from source. Please add the directory

10 8.889 containing pg_config to the $PATH or specify the full executable path with the

10 8.889 option:

10 8.889

10 8.889 python setup.py buildext --pg-config /path/to/pgconfig build …

10 8.889

10 8.889 or with the pg_config option in 'setup.cfg'.

10 8.889

10 8.889 If you prefer to avoid building psycopg2 from source, please install the PyPI

10 8.889 'psycopg2-binary' package instead.

10 8.889

10 8.889 For further information please check the 'doc/src/install.rst' file (also at

10 8.889 ;).

Use the binary version of psycopg2

Use the binary version of psycopg2

I tried, still an error with ps_config. The point is, I don't use PostgreSQL. Django has a built-in sqlite3 database, why do I need another one?
Or am I obligated to use it?
