Hiya George,
Just like you suggested, i've tried to start it thru
the system run level editor. The status does show
'yes' when i started postgreSQL thru the run level
editor, but i'm surprised it won't let me create a
database still, even with that.
There must be something i haven't done.
Thanks,
Newton

Hello,
Try starting it through the System run level editor in Yast.
It seems like you are not in the right directory to run the ./configure script.
Good luck. George

a �crit : Hiya Dees,
I've seen the intelligent contributions you've
making to this community, and would wish to ask for your assistance to solve this problem.
I have, before now, been working in the windows environment. Recently however, i installed SUSE 8.0 in my desktop, and as one of the open source softwares in SUSE, also installed PostgreSQL. The problem is
i have been unable to get it properly installed.
The manual i read says i should do carry out the following steps:
1) Create the postgre user, using the following command: $ su - -c " useradd postgres "
This was successfully done.
2) Install the postgreSQL Source package. This i have done successfully from the SUSE package.
3) Configure Source Tree. This I am supposed to do using: $ ./configure
However, this has refused to work as shown by
been that the
following response i got from the system:
newton@linux:~> cd home newton@linux:~/home> cd bin newton@linux:~/home/bin> ./configure bash: ./configure: No such file or directory newton@linux:~/home/bin> su Password: linux:/home/newton/home/bin # ./configure bash: ./configure: No such file or directory linux:/home/newton/home/bin # ls . PG_VERSION global pg_hba.conf
pg_xlog postmaster.opts .. base pg_clog pg_ident.conf
postgresql.conf linux:/home/newton/home/bin # exit exit newton@linux:~/home/bin> ls PG_VERSION global pg_hba.conf pg_xlog
postmaster.opts base pg_clog pg_ident.conf postgresql.conf newton@linux:~/home/bin> ./configure --help bash: ./configure: No such file or directory newton@linux:~/home/bin>
What exactly haven't i done correctly? How do i go about configuring the Source Tree?
Thanks
Newton
