upgrade problem

[Thomas Keller <kellert(at)ohsu(dot)edu>]

Hi,
Darn, I thought I had this under control.
I just installed 8.3.0 and it seemed to go OK.

The server seems to be running OK:
> $ sudo -u postgres pg_ctl restart
> pg_ctl: PID file "/usr/local/pgsql/data/postmaster.pid" does not exist
> Is server running?
> starting server anyway
> pg_ctl: could not read file "/usr/local/pgsql/data/postmaster.opts"


But now, trying to create a database I get an error:

> $ createdb testdb
> createdb: could not connect to database postgres: could not connect  
> to server: No such file or directory
>         Is the server running locally and accepting
>         connections on Unix domain socket "/tmp/.s.PGSQL.5432"?


Here's my $PGDATA:
> $ sudo -u postgres ls -al $PGDATA
> total 32
> drwx------ 14 postgres wheel   476 Feb 28 17:21 .
> drwxr-xr-x  9 root     wheel   306 Feb 28 17:19 ..

And here's my config:

> PKGINCLUDEDIR = /usr/local/pgsql/include

> SHAREDIR = /usr/local/pgsql/share
> SYSCONFDIR = /usr/local/pgsql/etc
> PGXS = /usr/local/pgsql/lib/pgxs/src/makefiles/pgxs.mk
> CONFIGURE = '--with-includes=/sw/include:/opt/local/include' '-- 
> with-libraries=/sw/lib:/opt/local/lib' '--with-perl' '--with-krb5'  
> '--with-openssl' '--with-pam' '--with-ldap' '--with-bonjour' '-- 
> with-libxml'
> CC = gcc -no-cpp-precomp

Hopefully, it is something simple. Help, please.
