"/var/lib/pgsql/data is missing. Use "service postgresql initdb" to initialize the cluster first."

When I run
service postgresql initdb
I get
"se:     [FAILED]".
However, /var/lib/pqsql/data is created and user postgres owns it.

But then I run
service postgresql start
and the very same error occurs..

Shoud add that version is 8.3.1 and I've installed it using RPM packages... Thanks in advance for any tip...

Where did you get the rpm packages?


I downloaded them from rpmfind.net They were Fedora 9 i386 version.

I reinstalled CentOS yesterday and during installation I checked to include PostgreSQL 8.1.11. Now it seems to work properly.
