Thanks for the quick reponses. I'll show you some more about the logs I
get, maybe that gives you a better idea of what is going on.
I have run initdb as described in the INSTALL file like:
su - postgres
wuppy:~$ initdb -D /opt/postgresql/data/
This database system will be initialized with username "postgres".
This user will own all the data files and must also own the server process.
Fixing permissions on existing directory /opt/postgresql/data/
Creating directory /opt/postgresql/data//base
Creating directory /opt/postgresql/data//global
Creating directory /opt/postgresql/data//pg_xlog
Creating template1 database in /opt/postgresql/data//base/1
DEBUG: database system was shut down at 2001-09-15 18:19:13 CEST
DEBUG: CheckPoint record at (0, 8)
DEBUG: Redo record at (0, 8); Undo record at (0, 8); Shutdown TRUE
DEBUG: NextTransactionId: 514; NextOid: 16384

Creating global relations in /opt/postgresql/data//global
DEBUG: database system was shut down at 2001-09-15 18:19:37 CEST

Initializing pg_shadow.
Enabling unlimited row width for system tables.
Creating system views.
Loading pg_description.
Setting lastsysoid.
Vacuuming database.
Copying template1 to template0.
Success. You can now start the database server using:
/opt/postgresql/bin/postmaster -D /opt/postgresql/data/
or
/opt/postgresql/bin/pg_ctl -D /opt/postgresql/data/ -l logfile start
So all seems well, I guess. Then I run:
wuppy:~$ /opt/postgresql/bin/postmaster -D /opt/postgresql/data/
DEBUG: database system was shut down at 2001-09-15 18:20:06 CEST
DEBUG: CheckPoint record at (0, 1522068)
DEBUG: Redo record at (0, 1522068); Undo record at (0, 0); Shutdown TRUE
DEBUG: NextTransactionId: 615; NextOid: 18720
DEBUG: database system is in production state
Which is OK too.
After that every command responds with show: command not found, like:
psql template1
./psql: show: command not found
So I still guess I did everything right ??? Didn't I ?
