Обсуждение: Postgresql Makefile

Hi,
  We are folllowing the installation steps taht came with the postgresql code. when we try to do:
/usr/local/pgslq/bin/initdb -D /us/local/pgsql/data.....
 it can't find bin as it doesn't get placed in the directory specifed by prefix during the configuration . Does
anyoneknow what the problem could be? 
 
Also, when we run "gmake check" , we get this error message :


pg_regress: postmaster did not start
Examine ./log/postmaster.log for the reason.
./pg_regress: kill: no such process
thank you
Sumaira

P.S-  and we could  not find  the ./log/postmaster.logMSN 8 with e-mail virus protection service:  2

Did you complete the installation? If you are not sure, read src/INSTALL
for details. If you are sure, forward the steps you have completed.

You cannot do the regression test until atleast you complete gmake. Please
have the below in mind during regression test:

1. Donot run it as root.
2. Ensure no other postmaster is running on the same machine on same port
3. Set the permissions for the below directories appropriately.
   # chmod 766 src/contrib/spi/ -R
   # chmod 766 src/test/regress/ -R
