I have installed PostgreSQL via the ports on a new 7.1 machine. I am trying to set it up.
I found: http://www.freebsddiary.org/postgresql.php Whic says to run: su -l pgsql -c initdb But that gives me the following error message: initdb: no data directory specified You must identify the directory where the data for this database system will reside. Do this with either the invocation option -D or the environment variable PGDATA. But when I try: # su -l pgsql -c initdb -D /usr/local/postgres I get: Illegal option -D What am I doing wrong? -- One of the main causes of the fall of the roman empire was that, lacking zero, they had no way to indicate successful termination of their C programs. _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
