hi All !

i create database :

$ createdb -D /home/eater/data listing
ERROR: Unable to locate path '/home/eater/data/listing'
This may be due to a missing environment variable in the server
createdb: database creation failed on listing.

what may be wrong ? what the variable is missing ?

i can't found it in manual..
