I had checked the directory:
/var/lib/pgsql (not postgres)
It has some files but I can't do with it. I thought I had a prolems when
install mandrake 9.0 and I installed it again but there is nothing to be
change.
When I start postgresql by the command:
/etc/init.d/postgresql start
then I type with user root:
createdb demo
Have a error message:
user "root" does not exist
What does this mean? please help me, thank you very much.
