Thanks for all the advice. The following was _exactly_ the problem. I
had tried to compile this source code in a recent version of solaris. It
compiled flawlessly, but postmaster wouldn't start up. So I just did a
secure shell to a linux machine, ran "make clean" from the same directory,
and ran configure. I thought make clean would erase all except the
distribution files. It compiled, installed, and I used psql
to get into the database. I haven't tested the ODBC or the JDBC
interfaces yet (I'm using both in my projects), but all seems to be
working.
Thanks,
