Hi. Nice job with this port, but yesterday a newbee, ask-me about
postgresql83-server database population (initdb), and I said to him to
follow the tips in the ports installation. After that I tried it
myself, and find out that the message is out of order...
look:
----
======================================================================
To initialize the database, run
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/postgresql initdb
You can then start PostgreSQL by running:
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/postgresql start
For postmaster settings, see ~pgsql/data/postgresql.conf
NB. FreeBSD's PostgreSQL port logs to syslog by default
See ~pgsql/data/postgresql.conf for more info
======================================================================
To run PostgreSQL at startup, add
'postgresql_enable="YES"' to /etc/rc.conf
======================================================================
---
I try the "/usr/local/etc/rc.d/postgresql initdb" and nothing happen,
than I realized that we need this message to be:
---
======================================================================
To run PostgreSQL at startup, add
'postgresql_enable="YES"' to /etc/rc.conf
======================================================================
To initialize the database, run
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/postgresql initdb
You can then start PostgreSQL by running:
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/postgresql start

NB. FreeBSD's PostgreSQL port logs to syslog by default
See ~pgsql/data/postgresql.conf for more info
======================================================================
---
To work correctly. We need first the /etc/rc.conf variable
"postgresql_enable="YES"", only after that the initdb worked...
Is it possible to change the order of the message? It will make new
users more happy. Thanks in advance, and you are done a great job
maintaining this ports...
