Cleaning up...
Command python setup.py egg_info failed with error code 1 in /tmp/pip-build-1xk9772d/psycopg2-binary

In this post, we will see How To Fix – “Error: pg_config executable not found” in Python. The most frequent occurrence of this issue is while installing or using psycopg2 & PostgreSQL.

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

Let’s see what pg_config is – pg_config utility prints various configuration parameters with respect to the running version of PostgreSQL. As such it  is used by different software, modules or packages while trying to access Postgresql.

First thing first, it is assumed that you had installed postgresql & psycopg2 in the below sequence of order. If this sequence is followed, it is highly unlikely that any error should come.

• Installed postgresql
• Added postgresql bin dir to PATH variable
• Installed psycopg2

In case the above sequence of order was not adhered to and subsequently you face the error, let’s see how we can identify the root cause and fix the current issue step by step.

Check :

• Check the current postgresql configuration. Use the below command –

eval ./configure 'pg_config --configure'

• As a next step, check if postgresql is correctly been added to the environment PATH variable.

$ which pg_config

• If postgresql binaries are not added to the Path variable while installing postgresql, then add it manually. This will automatically add pg_config to the environment path as well. Check the availability of pg_config file in one of the below location based on your platform. Now assuming you added the postgresql bin to the PATH variable, hence the pg_config file must be accessible . And hopefully the error should be fixed. This is the most basic cause and fix for the issue.
  • Windows – ProgramFilesPostgreSQLVersion_Nobin
  • Mac  – /Applications/Postgres.app/Contents/Versions/<Version_No>/bin
  • /Library/PostgreSQL/<Version_No>/bin
  • /usr/pgsql-<Version_No>/bin/

Did the above steps help to fix the error ? If yes – Great ! But if not then read on.

If even after the above steps, you are facing the same error, then most probably the issue lies with pycopg2 package installation. Psycopg2 is the database adapter for Postgresql database and is the current stable implementation of this adapter. It is a C extension. And hence it is only compatible with CPython (Not Cython – don’t get confused). CPython is the default and most widely used implementation of the Python language – mostly you are using exactly this version of python itself right now. Hence you would need few additional steps.

So read on for the next set of check-steps to follow.

Check :

• Did you install pyscopg2 correctly ? Note that – it is a C wrapper around the libpq postgreSQL client library. And hence there are few things that you need to take care of. Use the below steps if not done already.

• Python header files – These are needed for pycopg2. So install these by installing the the package – python-dev or python3-dev as per the python version.

sudo apt-get install python-dev  <- for python 2.7

sudo apt-get install python3.5-dev <- python 3.5

sudo apt-get install python3.9-dev <- python 3.9

Note : While doing this step, if you see an error – “Python.h: No such file or directory”, the fix is explained here – How To Fix – fatal error: Python.h: No such file or directory ?

• libpq header files – These are also needed for psycopg2. So install these by installing the package libpq-dev.

sudo apt-get install libpq-dev

• pg_config –  It is installed by the libpq-dev package. But it might get missed from being added to the PATH. Get the path . Generally it is – /usr/lib/postgresql/X.Y/bin/. And then add it to the PATH.

$ export PATH=/usr/lib/postgresql/X.Y/bin/:$PATH

• Assuming you followed the above steps, run the below –

$ pip install psycopg2

Check :

For your ease – this is a quick comprehensive fix if you are not bothered about the extra knowledge and just concerned with the fix.

• Ubuntu –

sudo apt-get install libpq-dev python-dev <- for python 2.7
sudo apt-get install libpq-dev python3.5-dev <- python 3.5
sudo apt-get install libpq-dev python3.9-dev <- python 3.9

• Mac

brew install postgresql

• openSUSE:

zypper in postgresql-devel

• Amazon Linux

yum -y install postgresql-devel

• CentOS

sudo yum install postgresql postgresql-devel python-devel

Additional Info :

Few points you should note and cross-check –

• The current psycopg2 supports –
  • Python – 3.6 to 3.9
  • PostgreSQL server – 7.4 to 13
  • PostgreSQL client – from 9.1

Hope this helps to fix the error.
