Hi! Donīt know if itīs right here but I wasnīt succesful at news.postgresql yet :( ...
Ok, main thing is: I downloaded&installed postgresql 7.2 (it seemed to be the new official package back then) recently and all of the stuff it needs. ipc-daemon & works (it did nothing foolish so far). Then I tried the initdb-script to initialize the db. (at least this is what iīve found to be done first after reading all of these howtos and readmes. Here I should point out that they either were a)too old (referencing version 7.1.3 ?) b)path structure different c)saying different things about what to do ) So, this is what initdb offered me: ______________________________ $ initdb -D /usr/share/postgresql/data/ basename: not found grep: not found grep: not found sed: not found The program 'postgres' is needed by but was not found in the directory '/usr/bin'. Check your installation. ______________________________ It seems to me that some bash commands donīt work, it would be interesting if itīs a normal behaviour or due to win98, or is it a script error? Or - and i hope that - I just did the wrong things so far and itīs simple. Problem is, that I didnīt find anything explaining the postgresql cygwin-package separately and what to do then. And Iīve read somewhere that win98se is supposed to be supported...
