Hi
Version : Postgres v6.4.2 ( just downloaded 2 days back)
OS : RedHat v5.1 Linux v ?
hardware: i586 ( Pentium II @ 300Mhz )
The installation went fine until I ran initdb from the postgres account.
It gave a list but at the end it gives a parse error and dumps core. I am
attaching the output of initdb. can you help me ?
The compilation and installation went fine I believe, exept for warnings..
which is okay as per docs.
thanx and regards
Biju

We are initializing the database system with username postgres (uid=100).
This user will own all the files and must also own the server process.
