RE: [GENERAL] Environmental Variables

Okay, if you run "ps ax" do you have a line reading something like "/usr/bin/postmaster -S
-D/var/lib/pgsql -i"?. Second, if you do "ls /var/lib/pgsql/base" (as root), do you see a subdirectory called template1?

I uninstalled and reinstalled the packages.

I got the following response to my command "createdb mydb" (from my
account "dckinder"):

"Connection to database 'template1' failed.
conectDB() -- connect() failed: No such file or directory
Is the postmaster running at 'localhost' and accepting connections on Unix
socket '5432'?"

This is a single Redhat box. I am not connecting it over a network. I have
access to root.
