Hi friends,
Apologies for this long mail. Only after reading this mail you will realise the
importance of each and every word mentioned to explain my problem.
I have installed postgres 6.4 from CHIP SPECIAL CD 2. I have done the setup and
created the databases as per the documentation.
Currently my postgres status is as follows :
PGDATA=/usr/lib/pgsql
PGLIB=/usr/lib/pgsql
drwxr_xr_x /usr/lib/pgsql
drwx_____ /usr/lib/pgsql/base
drwx_____ /usr/lib/pgsql/template1
along with /usr/lib/pgsql/postgres and other directories
for the databases I have created.
My problem is when I start the PC during postgres service startup I get error
message saying that
/usr/bin/postmaster does not find the database system, expected to find
in path PGDATA /usr/lib/pgsql but unable to find file with path
/usr/lib/pgsql/base/template1/pg_class.
as a result postmaster does not start the service during startup. I have to
login as postgres and start the postmaster service manually. From postgres
login postmaster starts and from a different console I can access my postgres
databases.
Why the postgres system service is not starting ? Where am I going wrong ?
Please help me. At work I am working on INTEGRA RDBMS package. When I came to
know that there is RDBMS package called postgressql I was excited and installed
it and now even able to use it but everytime I have to login as postgres
in order to start postmaster.
If I start the frontend pgaccess from KDE it is also giving me error saying that
- -----------------------------------------------------
Error in startup script : couldn't load file 'libpgtcl.so' "
'libpgtcl.so':cannot open shared object file :No such file or directory
While executing
"load libpgtcl.so"
(procedure "main" line 6)
invoked from within
"main $argc $ argv"
file "/usr/bin/pgaccess" line 4954

I will be really thankful if I get some solution to this problem.
Thanking in advance. Waiting for your reply.
Thank you for your patient reading.
Regards
