Rebecca, how did you install PostGreSQL? Did you install it from the RPM?

Rebecca, I'm no Postgres expert, but I do use it. I'm guessing
that you need to
1. Log in to the 'postgres' account
2. run 'initdb'
3. then, as 'root' try to '/etc/init.d/postgres start'
initdb generally sets up your database instance - it creates
some necessary files and directories. At a command prompt,
do a 'man initdb' to read about it.
Again I'm not sure this is your problem, but when I first install
postgres, it usually takes a few false starts until you finally
get all the prerequisites done. Hopefully what I've outlined
above is all you need to do.
HTH.
