hi all,
manged to overcome the issue. the problem was with the shebang line of
the pg_ctlcluster script.
i replaced the switch '-T' with a '-t', turning Perl's 'tainting
checks' to 'tainting warnings'.

thanks

p.s. turning security off is never a solution.

hi all,
i'm running postgresql-7.4 on a debian etch box. postgresql was
working fine before the dist upgrade (it was sarge).
now, when i restart the service it says..
viraj:/var/log/postgresql# pg_ctlcluster 7.4 main reload
Insecure directory in $ENV{PATH} while running with -T switch at
/usr/bin/pg_ctlcluster line 384.
i didn't change permission of postgresql directories. and the
configuration files are untouched. can somebody shed some light on
this?
thank you
