It sounds like you've installed 8.0.1 but are running commands and the backend from 7.1, which presumably exist from a previous install. Might 7.1's commands be in your PATH ahead of the 8.0.1 commands? Where were the 8.0.1 files installed? What do the following commands show? which initdb initdb --version When you connect to the database, what does "SELECT version()" show? -- Michael Fuhr http://www.fuhr.org/~mfuhr/ ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 7: don't forget to increase your free space map settings
