This looks like an install from the 1-clicks, right? It looks to me that it's not karmic-compatible - try installing the debian packages instead (should be a simple apt-get install postgresql-8.4 - it's included by default in Karmic IIRC). I've done that many times without any issues like this. -- Magnus Hagander Me: http://www.hagander.net/ Work: http://www.redpill-linpro.com/ -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
