Hi,
I'm dutifully reporting some warnings I received when initializing a
postgresql database.
The command I ran was this:
sudo -u postgres /opt/local/lib/postgresql84/bin/initdb -E UTF-8 -D
/opt/local/var/db/postgresql84/defaultdb
(I had tried before without the '-E UTF-8' option, but that failed
completely with an encoding-related error.)
This is OSX 10.4 (Tiger); postgresql version 8.4, installed via macports.
here's the relevant part of the output:
initializing dependencies ... ok
creating system views ... ok
loading system objects' descriptions ... ok
creating conversions ... ok
creating dictionaries ... ok
setting privileges on built-in objects ... ok
creating information schema ... ok
vacuuming database template1 ... ok

ok
Otherwise, postgresql appears to be up and running. Thanks,
