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 anyone know 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.log
