It sounds like CPanel is broken. This doesn't surprise me, but
I'm surprised you're not recognizing what you're seeing.
I distribute an application that bundles Postgresql. It preloads
user accounts and sets up authentication automatically at
installation. It's not entirely trivial to get everything right, but
it only took me a couple of hours to write the code to do it.
Works fine, many deployed sites, no reports of problems ever.
So... wrapping an application specific installation and
post-installation configuration wrapper around postgresql
is pretty trivial.
Have you contacted Cpanel and asked them to fix their
code? What was their response?
Cheers,
Steve
