Hello,
I compiled the snapshot from 16. Oct on Sparc Linux. Make and make
install worked perfectly and I was able to start the postmaster as
described in INSTALL. But:
postgres:~$ ps ax | grep post
8575 ttyp4 S 0:00 /usr/local/pgsql/bin/postmaster -D /usr/local/pgsql/data
8576 ttyp4 S 0:00 postgres: stats buffer process
8578 ttyp4 S 0:00 postgres: stats collector process
8624 ttyp0 S 0:00 grep post
postgres:~$ createuser tillea
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: connectDBStart() -- connect() failed: No such file or directory
Is the postmaster running locally
and accepting connections on Unix socket '/var/run/postgresql/.s.PGSQL.5432'?
createuser: creation of user "tillea" failed
The logfile says:
DEBUG: database system was shut down at 2001-10-19 09:57:16 CEST
DEBUG: checkpoint record is at 0/123118
DEBUG: redo record is at 0/123118; undo record is at 0/0; shutdown TRUE
DEBUG: next transaction id: 90; next oid: 16556
DEBUG: database system is ready
Does anybody see a reason for this failure?
Kind regards
Andreas.
