Right you are about this Tom. I just found this out myself. The
/etc/init.d/postgresql script has PGDATA hardcoded. And I've gotten

What's a complete set? What I thought all I needed was:
postgresql-7.1.3-1PGDG.i686.rpm
postgresql-perl-7.1.3-1PGDG.i686.rpm
postgresql-server-7.1.3-1PGDG.i686.rpm
Do I need more?
Thank you much.!!
