Subject: [ADMIN] initializing the DB cluster
Date: Tue, 22 May 2007 23:45:18 -0600

      Hi all

I installed the source of PostgreSQL 8.2.3 on a linux machine. The installation process ended successfully but when I try to create the database cluster using the initdb command I get the following error:
      "
creating conversions ... sh: line 1: 1838 Segmentation fault (core dumped) "/home/grads/imehegaz/MyPostgreSQL/bin/postgres" --single -F -O -c search_path=pg_catalog -c exit_on_error=true template1 >/dev/null
      child process exited with exit code 139
      "
I installed the same source code before several time but this is the first time to get this error. Any idea of what could be the problem?

      Regards
      Islam Hegazy
