so you just copied the binary files over from AIX 6.1 .have you tried
what happens when you actually compile on AIX 7.1?
The filename in your "installers" error suggests that initdb fails - so
what happens when you do a manual initdb with your binaries?
On a different note - if IBM is using PostgreSQL on AIX internally you
might want to consider providing buildfarm support on different AIX
versions, that would help you and the community in supporting AIX.
