Tom,
There were some pathing issues that we modified, and deleting the pgdata
directory and running initdb anew, making sure the user was "postgres",
solved the problems. We are up and running. Thanks!
Louise

Sounds like you also have PATH problems: you've got an old version of
the postmaster in your PATH (possibly left over from your OS install).
