you should always state what error you are getting. First see if postgresql data directory is there. It should be in /var/lib/pgsql/data
on terminal window i used user name su but it asked for password i dont know any password.any body can help me how to setup and use php and postgrace sql on linux ie fedora 8.i am beginner in learning Linux.
to start postgresql you have to do it as user 'postgres'. Hence you require the root password. If you have the root password, first type
su <enter> rootpassword <enter> su postgres <enter> pg_ctl -D /var/lib/pgsql/data start <enter> post any error messages that come -- regards kg http://lawgon.livejournal.com http://nrcfosshelpline.in/web/ Foss Conference for the common man: http://registration.fossconf.in/web/ -- ______________________________________________________________________ Pune GNU/Linux Users Group Mailing List: ([email protected]) List Information: http://plug.org.in/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/plug-mail Send 'help' to [EMAIL PROTECTED] for mailing instructions.
