Thread: postgres installation on FBSD fails
Hello, I have setup a new pc with FBSD and tried to install postgres from packages collection. Testing the install routine pkg_add -n always says: pkg_add: cannot open /var/db/pkg/postgresql-7.0.3_1/+DISPLAY as display file So, what can I do now to install postgres? TIA C. -- Carsten Huettl - <http://www.ahorn-Net.de> pgp-key on request
Just install the source code directly... I just installed 7.1 (the latest) without any problems at all... it's easy...
