in make.conf:
USE="X gtk kde imap maildir oss alsa sdl xml tcltk php java postgresql apxs DSO cups mysql apache"


I've emerged apache-2, postgresql, php-4 and mod_php-4 in the order listed.
I've installed eestock in /var/www/localhost/htdocs
then started postgresql with /etc/init.d/postgresql -start
then according to the eestock install directions:

#su -
#su - postgres
#createuser -P
answered the prompts  and received the CREATE USER
#createdb eestock
#cd /var/www/localhost/htdocs/eestock/admin/utils <enter>
psql -d eestock -U eestock -f eeStock_init

This creates/fills all the fields/tables in database eestock.
I can browse the database with phppgadmin with no problem. I've included the -i in the postgresql startup script so that postmaster can receive tcp/ip connections.
In mozilla if I use http://localhost/eestock I get the page I expect to see without any errors (this would indicate that postgres is being connected to via tcp/ip.
There are two temporary users root and admin with temp passwd root admin. This is where the problem is, I type in root and root for passwd and the root and **** disappear and nothing new happens. this should open an admin window but does not. For some reason the data base is not read and thus no authentication takes place that would allow administration of eestock. I'm at a total loss, I've spent hours of reading the postgresql, php, apache docs. Googled and tried to follow any leads I've found but no joy. It seems that there might be a permissions problem, I'm no longer sure.


any suggestions welcome.
