hi all ,

when i do

> createdb -D /other/path dbname

I got the Message:

> ERROR: The database path '/other/path' is invalid. This may be due to a
character that is not allowed or because the chosen
> path isn't permitted for databases.

when i try to create a database anywhere else than the standard location.

I tried to set the filesystem permission to 777 but it failed either ..

Am i forced to tell postgres where databases are permitted ??
and how i can do this ??

thanx a lot in forward ..

would be nice to hear soon ..
