i'm having a trouble when installing the postgresql 7.2 on FreeBSD 4.2.

at the installation guide i must do the following:

./configure
gmake
su
gmake install
adduser postgres
mkdir /usr/local/pgsql/data
chown postgres /usr/local/pgsql/data
su - postgres
/usr/local/pgsql/bin/initdb -D /usr/local/pgsql/data
/usr/local/pgsql/bin/postmaster -D /usr/local/pgsql/data >logfile 2>&1 &
/usr/local/pgsql/bin/createdb test
/usr/local/pgsql/bin/psql test

i'll do all the steps squebtially until
when i run the command /usr/local/pgsql/bin/createdb test
i got this error message :
psql: could not connect to server: Connection refused
        Is the server running locally and accepting
        connections on Unix domain socket "/tmp/.s.PGSQL.5432"?
createdb: database creation failed
[2]+  Exit 2                  /usr/local/pgsql/bin/postmaster -D
/usr/local/pgsql/data >logfile 2>&1

it seems that the the postmaster didn't run, so anybody have any idea to
help my problem? i'm really  expect and would be very grateful for
it.

Let me caution you that I am an Linux geek, so YMMV.

Hmmm.  What happens when you try a straight:
/usr/local/pgsql/bin/postmaster -i -D /usr/local/pgsql/data
(I've added the -i because you'll want it later)
This should feed back any problems that postgres is having starting up
to the terminal.
