Perhaps I didn't get an answer to this question because I posted it
originally late last Friday, and it got lost over the weekend. So, I will
try again this Monday morning. :-)
I did a completely new installation of 7.0.3 via rpm. When I su'd to
'postgres' and tried to create another user (me) this is what I saw:
[postgres@salmo rshepard]$ createuser rshepard
Shall the new user be allowed to create databases? (y/n) y
Shall the new user be allowed to create more new users? (y/n) y
psql: Missing or erroneous pg_hba.conf file, see postmaster log for details
createuser: creation of user "rshepard" failed
Will someone please explain to me what I missed during the installation? I
know it must be something simple, but I don't see the answer in the
administrator's manual. (If the answer is there, please pass me a pointer to
the page number and I'll go read it for myself.)
Thanks,
