Well the tutorial is geared to using the command line to run programs.

Are you comfortable with the command line or would you prefer to use a GUI like pgAdmin?


I just learned about phpPGAdmin and installed it as well. But when I
navigate to localhost/phppgadmin, I get a "not found" error message.

        following command:

        $  createdb mydb

        But it doesn't say where I'm supposed to type it. When I click
        on the
        PostgreSQL icon in my taskbar, a program called pgAdminIII opens up.
        I've clicked File, Edit, Plugins, etc., but I don't see any
        clues about
        where I'm supposed to type commands.


    So lets backup up a bit:

    1) What OS are you on?

    2) How did you install Postgres?

    3) What version of Postgres?
    Hope it is not 8.0 implied by the doc link above.
