Dear list
I try to init the DB cluster without success. I am working on a RHEL 4 box and I installed postgresql, postgresql-server and postgresql-jdbc. For the installation I used up2date and everything went fine.
To init the DB cluster I typed:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] bin]# su - postgres
-bash-3.00$ initdb -E latin1 --locale=de_CH --lc-collate=C -D /var/lib/pgsql/data -W
That results in the following output:
<output>
The files belonging to this database system will be owned by user "postgres".
This user must also own the server process.
The database cluster will be initialized with locales: COLLATE: C CTYPE: de_CH MESSAGES: de_CH MONETARY: de_CH NUMERIC: de_CH TIME: de_CH

Please report this problem.
initdb: failed </output>
Does anybody as an idea? Please point me in the right direction! Thanks!
Kind regards Martin
