Hi,
I am having trouble installing postgresql on a centos 5.4 server with linux 2.6.18-164.el5 as kernel ( vmware node ) using yum. It seems it is unable to create the configuration files while running initdb. I checked pgstartup.log and found following error :
creating conversions ... FATAL: could not load library "/usr/pgsql-9.0/lib/utf8_and_johab.so": /usr/pgsql-9.0/lib/utf8_and_johab.so: failed to map segment from shared object: Cannot allocate memory
Server has 4GB ram, so this is not an issue of low memory and this server is not so busy server. The above error is showing for version for each of the following postgresql repos :
pgdg-centos-9.0-2.noarch
pgdg-centos-8.4-2.noarch
pgdg-centos-8.3-7.noarch
The default CentOS base repo which installs postgresql-8.1.x on using yum works fine and starts the postgresql service without any problem.
