I started with Debian 3. I am using Gnu's make 1.76, Linux kernel 2.0.33. Bash 2 I am tring to get PostgreSQL on my box. I am able to complie with no error. Install says all is done, but on the next step for the install: (the first initdb) this is what I get.
postgres:~/ initdb initdb: error: database initialization files not found. initdb: either gmake install has not been run or you're trying to initdb: run this program on a machine that does not store the initdb: database (PGHOST doesn't work for this). I exported: PGDATA as /usr/local/pgsql/data PGLIB as /usr/local/pgsql/lib and added the bin paths to my own. This, again, as stated in the install. But there is no data directory under /usr/local/pgsql. I'm lost. Has anyone seen this before. Please tell me the dumb mistake I am making. any help would be greatly appreached. hal [EMAIL PROTECTED] "THINGS ARE MORE LIKE THEY ARE NOW THAN THEY EVER WERE BEFORE." - Zen Master and U.S. President Dwight D.
