Hi all.

I am trying to install 7.0.2 on RH 6.2. Please help
me... I can make fine, but when I try to initdb I get
the following:

<BEGIN QUOTE>
wsprague>initdb

We are initializing the database system with username
wsprague (uid=500).
This user will own all the files and must also own the
server process.

Creating template database in
/usr/local/pgsql/data/base/template1
ERROR: Error: unknown type 'oidvector'.

ERROR: Error: unknown type 'oidvector'.

syntax error 12 : parse errorinitdb: could not create
template database
initdb: cleaning up by wiping out
/usr/local/pgsql/data/base/template1
[wsprague(at)lappi wsprague]$

<END QUOTE>

wsprague owns "data" & "base". I get a similar error
when I su to postgres, as well.

Thanks again
W
