Hi,
I have just downloaded, installed/configured postgresql version 8.2.11 on Fedora Core 6. While reading through the installation manual have setup most of its parts; now while trying to run datebase server with the command:
$ postmaster -D /usr/local/pgsql/data
I get the following error:
"FATAL: data directory "/usr/local/pgsql/data" has group or world access
DETAIL: Permissions should be u=rwx (0700)."
Although I'm running this command from user 'postgres'; who has the ownership of /pgsql/data directories as well.
Secondly, when I try to check that postgresql service is running or not; with the command: # service postgrsql status
postgrsql: unrecognized service
Again when I configured all it stuff, like the following among several things:
|
[root@callisto]# cp /usr/local/pgsql/postgresql-8.2.11/contrib/start-scripts/linux /etc/init.d/postgres
[root@callisto init.d]# chmod 755 /etc/init.d/postgres
[root@callisto init.d]# gedit /etc/init.d/postgres
[root@callisto init.d]# ln -s /etc/init.d/postgres /etc/rc2.d/S85postgres
[root@callisto init.d]# ln -s /etc/init.d/postgres /etc/rc3.d/S85postgres
[root@callisto init.d]# /etc/init.d/postgres start
Starting PostgreSQL: ok
I wonder what is the best way to get PostgreSQL working? Any help in this regard will be highly appreciated..
Regards
