The following is an update with my installation, with a few questions. The 
errors that I'm getting are shown in* italics.*

Step 1: install core Arches.
This was done successfully. The manual asks after unzipping, rename Arches 
archive folder to “Arches”. Is this needed, and if so, how is this done.

Step 2 Install PostgreSQL/PostGIS
This was done successfully

Install the database:
OK, with the exception of the following comment.

sudo -u postgres psql -d postgres -c "ALTER USER postgres with encrypted 
password 'postgis';"
*could not change directory to root*

Configure the connection parameters:
OK, with the exception of the following line.

sudo echo "local all all trust" >> /etc/postgresql/9.2\Step 1: Install Core 
Arches 20/main/pg_hba.conf
*-bash: /main/pg_hba.conf: No such file or directory*

Install the GEOS library:
Good

Get PostGIS:
OK, with some errors such as...

sudo -u postgres psql -d postgres -c "CREATE EXTENSION postgis;"
*could not change directory to "/root"*
*ERROR: extension "postgis" already exist*
sudo -u postgres createdb -E UTF8 -T template0 --locale=en_US.utf8 
template_po\
stgis_20
*could not change directory to "/root"*
*createdb: database creation failed: ERROR:  database "template_postgis_20" 
already exists*
sudo -u postgres psql -d postgres -c "UPDATE pg_database SET 
datistemplate='tr\
ue' WHERE datname='template_postgis_20'"Step 1: Install Core Arches 21
*could not change directory to "/root"*
sudo -u postgres psql -d template_postgis_20 -f 
/usr/share/postgresql/9.2/cont\
rib/postgis-2.0/postgis.sql
*similar errors for all remaining strings in this section*

Get the latest JDK:
sudo -u postgres createdb -E UTF8 -T template_postgis_20 
--locale=en_US.utf8 a\
rches
*could not change directory to "/root*

And finally for step 3, I would like to know how to install the two 
packages Django and the elastic search. The instructions seem minimal for 
this section. I've tried the following line for the Django software, but 
can't figure out how to install it.

sudo wget https://www.djangoproject.com/m/releases/1.6/Django-1.6.2.tar.gz
sudo tar -xzf Django-1.6.2.tar.gz

Thanks again
Chris
