Hi Mourad,
I saw your message on the postgres group. I'm not terribly
familiar with postgres, but my experience with other
software packages is that sometimes I find myself running a
different executable than the one I just built. I'm
assuming your working on a unix OS? (I don't know if this is
a good assumption).
One thing you can do is check "which psql" and "which
initdb" to see which version of postgres executables are
being found in your path. You can even "ls -la `which
psql`" to see the date on the file. Is this the copy you
recently built? Echo $PATH to see if there are other
versions in your path. On some flavors of unix you can type
"where psql" or "where postmaster" to list all locations of
the executable in your path. Modify your PATH or move older
versions to a subdirectory to take them out of your path if
you find out you're running a version that's not the new
version.
And if this advice doesn't help, delete this message
quickly!
I hope this helps.
