Hi:
I'm installing Postgres 6.5.3 & got the following error, which I saw
mentioned many times in mailing list postings (which I had to access through
a google search, since the archives search function on the postgres site is
broken...) - no solution was ever posted, however.
[postgres@pork62 pgsql]$ initdb
initdb: using /usr/local/pgsql/lib/local1_template1.bki.source as input to
create the template database.
initdb: using /usr/local/pgsql/lib/global1.bki.source as input to create the
global classes.
initdb: using /usr/local/pgsql/lib/pg_hba.conf.sample as the host-based
authentication control file.
We are initializing the database system with username postgres (uid=100).
This user will own all the files and must also own the server process.

What's up?
