I'm trying to install Postgres 6.3.2. I've upgraded from 6.2.
I'm running Red Hat Linux 4.2 (kernel 2.0.34) on X86
I've applied all the patches in the patches directory and I have removed al
l traces of previous installs. I've seached through all the mailing lists from the web
sit
e and could only locate reports of similar problems on Sparcs.
But I still get the following error:
initdb: using /usr/local/pgsql/lib/local1_template1.bki.source as input to create the
temp
late database.
initdb: using /usr/local/pgsql/lib/global1.bki.source as input to create the global
classe
s.
initdb: using /usr/local/pgsql/lib/pg_hba.conf.sample as the host-based authentication
con
trol file.
We are initializing the database system with username pgsql (uid=17).
This user will own all the files and must also own the server process.
Creating Postgres database system directory /usr/local/pgsql/data
Creating Postgres database system directory /usr/local/pgsql/data/base
initdb: creating template database in /usr/local/pgsql/data/base/template1

Adding template1 database to pg_database...
Running: postgres -boot -C -F -D/usr/local/pgsql/data -Q template1 < /tmp/create.16258
initdb: could not log template database
initdb: cleaning up.
initdb simply core dumps and then destroys the data directory entirely. I really need
to
get this working any help would be greatly appreciated.
