Hello, I'm facing a trouble with the initdb execution of PostgreSQL 7.4.19 on a Redhat 4 : [uname -a] Linux <host> 2.6.9-5.ELsmp #1 SMP Wed Jan 5 19:30:39 EST 2005 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux [cat /proc/version] Linux version 2.6.9-5.ELsmp ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) (gcc version 3.4.3 20041212 (Red Hat 3.4.3-9.EL4)) #1 SMP Wed Jan 5 19:30:39 EST 2005 [cat /etc/redhat-release] Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES release 4 (Nahant)
Then i install PostgreSQL binary in the order : rpm -ivh postgresql-libs-7.4.19-1PGDG.rhel4.i686.rpm rpm -ivh postgresql-7.4.19-1PGDG.rhel4.i686.rpm rpm -ivh postgresql-server-7.4.19-1PGDG.rhel4.i686.rpm Then I execute initdb with the user postgres : -bash-3.00$ initdb -d Running in debug mode. initdb: internal variables: PGDATA=/var/lib/pgsql/data datadir=/usr/share/pgsql PGPATH=/usr/bin ENCODING= ENCODINGID=0 POSTGRES_SUPERUSERNAME=postgres POSTGRES_BKI=/usr/share/pgsql/postgres.bki POSTGRES_DESCR=/usr/share/pgsql/postgres.description POSTGRESQL_CONF_SAMPLE=/usr/share/pgsql/postgresql.conf.sample PG_HBA_SAMPLE=/usr/share/pgsql/pg_hba.conf.sample PG_IDENT_SAMPLE=/usr/share/pgsql/pg_ident.conf.sample The files belonging to this database system will be owned by user "postgres".

Is there anybody able to understand this failure ? Why default max_connections and shared_buffers are not the same ? -- Laurent _________________________________________________________________ Comme 9 millions de français, créez un compte Hotmail ! http://www.windowslive.fr/hotmail/default.asp
