nope! i have purposefully deselected postgres 7.4 installation at OS install.
then downloaded postgresql sources of 8.1.4 and installed it in
/usr/local/pgsql with data dir as /data/pgdata. later , i have set PGDATA to
/data/pgdata in startup script from contrib/scripts of sources and placed it in
/etc/init.d
to be sure, i re-checked with rpm -qa|postgres too which didnt give me any
package listing.
ps auxww |grep postgresql gives /data/pgdata as the data dir.
whats happening ?
Have you tried looking in /var to see what's there?
find /var -type f -msize +9999k
