You should really consider upgrading. There has been a lot of development, both feature-wise and concerning bug-squashing, since the 7.1-days. > Sometimes (nearly 50% of the times) the database creation > fails by saying > "ERROR: CREATE DATABASE: source database "template1" is > being accessed by other users" 8.1 has introduced the concept of a "maintenance-database", but you can easily do something similar by either creating your db's with "CREATE DATABASE foo WITH TEMPLATE = template0;" (but anything you have changed in template1 after PostgreSQL-installation won't be in your new db then) or simply create another template-database, say template2 for this purpose.
