Hi,
I use FreeBSD 7.2-RELEASE #0: Fri May 1 07:18:07 UTC 2009
I installed the above port and my /usr/local/etc/rc.d/postgresql
script doesn't work...it doesn't initialize the db, it doesn't make it
start....
If i do it "manually" with the on-installation created user pgsql:
[pgsql@zennaVo /]$ initdb -D /usr/local/pgsql/data
[pgsql@zennaVo /]$ pg_ctl -D /usr/local/pgsql/data start
it works....
What's the problem with the startup script? am I doing
something wrong?
My startup script:
------------------------
#!/bin/sh
# $FreeBSD: ports/databases/postgresql83-server/files/postgresql.in,v
