Re: Install problems for postgresql-8.4.1

Success at last!!!

I downloades a new tarball from sourceforge; this time selecting the
tar.bz2 compression scheme. Previously I always used the tar.gz out
of habit.
The install went off without a hitch!
Something is off about some of these tar files.
Many thanks for all the help!
