[LI] Postgres

["Aditya Deshpande" <aditya.deshpande@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,
    Has anybody succesfully installed and used postgres server. Could
somebody explain to me as to how to go about installing it? Another
thing...... I have read the HOWTO and its help. But it says something about
a .gz file which i have to unzip into /usr/src/pgsql. now this file i do not
find on PCQ RH 6.1. However I was able to find the binary which when run
says " not able to find data PGDATA not set" etc.... What is postmaster and
should it be run before postgres is run. Does it run automatically when i
boot into the system?

Regards,
Aditya Deshpande
