It looks as though the init.d script "postgres" supplied with
7.1.2 no longer propagates environment variables to pg_ctl. Was that
an intentional change? Or is this something no one else sees?
I put databases off on their own partition, away from /var/lib/pgsql.
In the base, all I had to do was add:
export SOLISDB=.....
into /etc/rc.d/init.d/postgres to use createdb --location SOLISDB
but I just noticed that this isn't working with 7.1.2. Instead, I
have to put the export directly into /usr/bin/pg_ctl - which I'm not
particularly fond of doing.
Thanks!
