Libssl and libcrypto causing dyld: Library not loaded: /usr/lib/libpq.5.dylib

Turns out /usr/lib/libpq.5.dylib was absent but /usr/lib/libpq.5.4.dylib was not.

sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libpq.5.4.dylib /usr/lib/libpq.5.dylib

fixed the issue.

python postgresql pip psycopg2 libssl

Not unlike @Pablo Marambio, I fixed this issue by adding the following line to ~/.profile:

export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=/Library/PostgreSQL/9.3/lib:$DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH

For Postgres.app v9.3.5.0 (presumably others too) I added the following line instead:

export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=/Applications/Postgres.app/Contents/Versions/9.3/lib:$DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH

Then, of course, run source ~/.profile

python postgresql pip psycopg2 libssl

To resolve this, I had to uninstall postgresql and then install again.

$ brew uninstall postgresql$ brew update$ brew install postgres
