I am trying to install Postgres V6.4 on my Redhat box, but cannot find a way
past the following error which I get after "make all >& make.log &":-
make -C parser all
make[2]: Entering directory
`/usr/src/pgsql/postgresql-v6.4/src/backend/parser'
gcc -I../../include -I../../backend -O2 -Wall -W
System : Redhat 5.1
Linux kernel : 2.0.34
PostgreSQL : version 6.3 (rpm)
Problems starting postmaster. I am getting this error whenever I try
running PostgreSQL:
Starting postgresql service: bash: /usr/bin/postmaster: permission denied
Can anyone give any assistance please?
Thanks.

Hi Miguel
As what user are you trying to run postmaster?
ALSO, as what user did you compile and install PostgreSQL as?
If the answer to both is not user postgres, as root do:
(you must have created user postgres already, and set the home dir. to the
pgsql dir.)
chown -R postgres:postgres ~post
Terry,
Thanks for your help, but I still getting the same message when I run the
following postgresql script as root:
[root@lelu /root]# /etc/rc.d/init.d/postgresql start
Starting postgresql service: bash: /home/valero/.bashrc: Permission denied
bash: /usr/bin/postmaster: Permission denied
