Re: [cobalt-users] PostgreSQL?

[Richard Trice <tricer@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Postgres is kind of strange.   What form of install
did you use?  Did you compile the 6.5 version from
the postgres site, or did you use the old version from the
experimental ftp server?   there are several settings
you must add to your .profile (or /etc/profile) to
start things off if u used the RPM.  Pls detail the
postgres instalation steps, and maybe I can help.
