Thanks for your response. This is the first and only install of PG on this box, so that sounds a bit strange. I have no other installations the check for, unless one comes standard with Red Hat 6.0.
I have updated the PGLIB setting (to /usr/local/pgsql/lib) and now get this message: * * * initdb does not find the file '/usr/local/pgsql/lib/local1_template1.bki.source' - This means you have identified an invalid PGLIB directory, etc. * * * I checked in the PGLIB directory and only see files that start with libpq*, libe*, or libpq*. Am I missing any files?

You must identify the PGLIB directory either with a > --pglib invocation " .... etc. 7.1's initdb script contains no such error message. I suspect you are invoking the wrong version of initdb, ie one left over from an older PG installation. Check your PATH. regards, tom lane _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
