In response to PG_VERSION Errors???  ("Glerum, Joe - KyEM" <jglerum@kydes.dma.state.ky.us>)
List pgsql-general
-> I have just installed the latest non-beta version of Postgres on a RedHat
-> 6.0 server.
->
-> I get the following messages on the console:
->
->
->     No data directory -- can't proceed.
->     -bash: 1:command not found
->     -bash: 1:command not found
->     INIT: Id "pg" respawning to fast: disabled for 5 minutes
->     Database system in directory /usr/local/pgsql/data is not compatable
-> with this version of Postgres, or we are unable to read the PG_VERSION file.
-> Explanation from the ValidatePgVersion: Version number in file
-> '/usr/local/pgsql/data/PG_VERSION' should be 6.5, not 6.4.
->
-> When I change the 6.4 to 6.5 and restart the postmaster I can't do so with
-> errors to change it back to 6.4.

Why are you e-mailing so many lists??

If you watch the 'initdb' command carefully, you'll note a 'pg_version'
error.  Find 'pg_version' under the source build, then run

    pg_version /usr/local/pgsql/data

--titus
