After I installed postgresql 7.1.3 from the ports tree, I found this message on the screen: "To initialize the database, you should run initdb as the "pgsql" user. Example: su -l pgsql -c initdb You can then start PostgreSQL by running: /usr/local/etc/rc.d/010.pgsql.sh start For postmaster settings, see ~pgsql/data/postgresql.conf" It appears pgsql is not contained within this release. I suspect the instructions are out of date. I think the correct instructions are: su -l pgsql initdb /usr/local/pgsql/data Make sense? -- Dan Langille The FreeBSD Diary - http://freebsddiary.org/ - practical examples To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
