Martin, Please see /usr/share/postgresql-common/README.Debian.gz for an intro. I find a file named README.Debian.gz here: /usr/share/doc/postgresql-8.2/ I had to unzip it to a tmp directory to read it. It mentions pg_createcluster, but in no way makes clear that pg_createcluster should be

Martin, I would like to run my history by you. I was using postgresql-7.4 before I switched to ubuntu (I am a refugee from RedHat). After I upgraded my workstation to the latest and greatest from ubuntu and installed the postgresql client, I got messages that the version 8 client does not work

Martin, Having just run this again, I can report that the conf files are deposited in the data directory when you run initdb. Also, for the postgresql server to start, I must copy server.crt, server.key and root.crt from /var/lib/postgresql/8.1/main to the data directory, and change the owner

Hi Rick, Rick Graves [2007-10-24 3:34 -]: Part of my problem was the conf files were not just in /etc/postgresql, but in /etc/postgresql/8.1/main This is because we support multiple versions in parallel, and also multiple clusters (instances) of one version in parallel. Please see

Martin, I installed postgresql 8.1, and there were duplicate copies of all the conf files (postgresql.conf, etc.) in the data directory. They are decoys in the sense that I found those first, but editing them had no effect. I am happy to add a small README.configuration to the data directory
