Hello,

If you are compiling from source then the postgresql startup script does not get installed.
You can use pg_ctl in /usr/local/pgsql/bin/pg_ctl to start postgresql. Alternatively you
can install the startup script from the contrib directory startscripts/linux


Sincerely,

Joshua D. Drake

It has been impossible to install PostgreSQL, an open
source software, from my SUSE 8.0 . Although it tells
you its been installed, each time i try to start it
using SysV-Init Editor, i get the following message:

<start>starting</start><cmd>/etc/init.d/postgresql</cmd>""<br/>
starting postgreSQL
/etc/init.d/postgresql.checkproc:command not found
....done

What exactly am i doing wrong? Or better still, what
haven't i done yet? Please help me
