Re: Help me

Hi all!
Postgresql is installed automatically with rpm packets, It run perfectly
with command : /etc/init.d/postgresql start
But when I stop it and switch to user: postgres, and start it with
command: postmaster -i then it does not working because It don't know
where the database is placed. A error message:

postmaster does not know where to find the database system data.
You must specify the directory that contains the database system
either by specifying the -D invocation option or by setting the
PGDATA environment variable.

Please help me!
