Обсуждение: Postgresql 7.3 And Redhat Enterprise 3
Hello, I've installed redhat enterprise 3 on a system to use as a db server. Manually I can install and run postgresql 7.3 (the one on the extras CD). The problem is when you try to add postgres as a service, it might add it, but it will not start it. To do this, we got a postgresql script, placed it in the init.d folder with all the other service shell scripts, and then went into services, add service, and typed postgres. The specific error received is: env: /etc/init.d/postgres no directory or file found Is there some environment variable that needs to be set in some file somewhere. I read a lot of documentation online, and modified whatever files that people mentioned, but maybe I'm missing something? Just to clarify, the server pgsql components are installed. I've done several fresh installs with all kinds of options either selected or de-selected. For example, I've installed all client, and server components at one point. What baffles me as well is that on Redhat 9.0 it sets up postgres for you on an install, and automatically adds, and configures it under services so that it auto starts postgres on a server reboot. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
Would you attach your startup script? 2 other questions? 1. Are all the binaries you are calling using the full paths? 2. Are you calling the pg_ctl as user postgres(or other user) (i.e. su - postgres -c 'pg_ctl .....'

Try appending the missing characters.
