Hi,

I installed successfully posgresql V7.0.2 (with ./configure
--prefix=/PROG/postgresql).
I've located the data in another directory ( PGDATA=/DATA/pgsql/data).
I have the right permission on this directory.

But, when run initdb, i get this error :
------------------------------
We are initializing the database system with username test (uid=501).
This user will own all the files and must also own the server process.

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

ERROR: Error: unknown type 'oidvector'.

initdb: could not create template database
initdb: cleaning up by wiping out /DATA/pgsql/data/base/template1
------------------------------

Thanks for your help
mmh.
