I installed PostgreSQL 7.3.4 on a red Hat Linux 8.0 system.
When I try to install clusters using initdb and postmaster commands to start
server and database, an error occurs:
You cannot run initdb -D /usr/local/pgsql/data as root. Please log in as the
(unprivileged) user that will own the server process.
Ok. I know that I need to log in as another Linux user to start PostgreSQL.
My problem is that I need to log on as root to access another process such as
Firebird.
Does exist a way to start Postgre as root?
I appreciate some help
Best Regards
