PostgreSQL version: 8.2
Operating system:   Solaris 10
Description:        install completely but can't connect to server
Details:

The procedure of installation as follows:


configure --prefix=(absolute path of MyInstall Directory) --bindir=(abs path
of MyInstall/bin)
  --datadir=(abs path of MyInstall/share) --sysconfdir=(abs path of
MyInstall/etc) --libdir=(abs
  path of MyInstall/lib) --includedir=(abs path of MyInstall/include)
--mandir=(abs path of
  MyInstall/man --enable-debug --enable-cassert

//after this, I checked the subdirectory MyInstall, no //subdirectory etc
and man created . Is it a problem? //why? how to solve it?

4. use gmake to build the PostgreSQL
5. gmake install to install PostgreSQL
*****************************************
//Success. You can now start the database server using:
    postmaster -D /home/group/s772/p772-01f/pgsql/CLUST/sys
or
    pg_ctl -D /home/group/s772/p772-01f/pgsql/CLUST/sys -l logfile start
*********************

6. Create the required filesystem
  1. Make directory CLUST
  2. Make Directories CLUST/sys, CLUST/wal, CLUST/archwal, CLUST/data

How to solve it? I had repeated n times for installation. but I failed. How
to solve?

This really makes me upset. The documentation reads like puzzle, taking you
here, and there, but no usful instructions.

Thanks.


Thanks.
