hi
i would have liked to install a new version of postgresql, but i haven't been
able to configure it, having tryed many times - i value my sanity too highly
however, i have discovered that i have version 7.3.2 installed. this must be
the version that came with my Redhat 8.0 distribution. i need java support
(for a 3rd year databases uni course). is it possible to build the JDBC
driver on top of my current version? (maybe i have it, how could i find out?)
also, when i type the command: psql
i get:
psql: could not connect to server: No such file or directory
Is the server running locally and accepting
connections on Unix domain socket "/tmp/.s.PGSQL.5432"?
how can i go about setting up a local server on this socket?
thanx, i really appreciate any advice u can offer
sam
