Dear my friends.... I am still new in PostgreSQL. Usually I use MySQL on OpenSuSE. I just have installed postgres with: "zypper install postgresql-server". The installation looked OK. As post-installation process, I've done: " sussy:~ # rcpostgresql status Checking for PostgreSQL: running sussy:~ # su postgres postgres@sussy:/root> createuser -D -p ricky could not change directory to "/root" Enter name of role to add: ricky Shall the new role be a superuser? (y/n) y createuser: could not connect to database postgres: could not connect to server: No such file or directory Is the server running locally and accepting connections on Unix domain socket "/tmp/.s.PGSQL.0"? postgres@sussy:/root> ". Why can I not connect to my Postgres? Please tell me. Give me a first hint and this small step for me to getting start to use postgres. Thank you very much in advance. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
