Hi .
Installing version 6.5.2 on a recently installed Linux RedHat 6.0, I get
the following message when running initdb:
" We are initializing the database system with username postgres
(uid=500).
This user will own all the files and must also own the server process.
Creating template database in /sql/data/base/template1
initdb: could not create template database
initdb: cleaning up by wiping out /sql/data/base/template1 "
If then I try to continue with the next step :
a. Start the postmaster daemon running in the
background by typing
$ cd
$ nohup postmaster -i > pgserver.log 2>&1 &
This goes OK!
b. Create a database by typing
$ createdb
This doesn't!!!
It shows:
"createdb: database creation failed on postgres.
[1]+ Segmentation fault (core dumped) nohup postmaster -i
>pgserver.log 2>&1 "
Can anybody help me?
I would be pleased.
Thanks,
Ana Roizen
