Thanks Gustaf! I should have read the sample config file more closely. I didn't realize the pgbin parameter existed. I was just lucky before.

I am not sure why setting the PATH in the nsd-postgres startup script did not allow Naviserver to use the correct psql but setting the parameter is more reliable, I think.

The configuration parameter pgbin is a pretty long time in OpenACS: it was added between the releases of oacs-4-6 and oacs-5 in 2003 by Andrew Piskorski. I should have read your first posting more carefully, which contained already all necessary hints.
