All:
I'm attempting to install postgresql 6.4.2 on my RedHat 5.1 system. The
build and install all go very smoothly and generate no errors in the log
files. When I attempt the initial initdb, however, I get the following
errors:
initdb: using /usr/local/pgsql/lib/local1_template1.bki.source as input
to create the template database.
initdb: using /usr/local/pgsql/lib/global1.bki.source as input to create
the global classes.
initdb: using /usr/local/pgsql/lib/pg_hba.conf.sample as the host-based
authentication control file.
We are initializing the database system with username postgres
(uid=100).
This user will own all the files and must also own the server process.

I looked through some of the postings archived on this problem but
didn't see any solutions. Does anyone have any idea what might be going
on here.
Thanks in advance!!!!
