Re: Mac OSX Installation



...And since I haven't been killed in the rush I may as well tell the list that I have managed to resolve the issue...

1) It seems, in my case, to relate to the permissions associated with the folder /usr/local/pgsql/data (ie my <data directory>)

2) sudo chown postgres <data directory>

3) sudo chgrp postgres <data directory>

Finally, the postgresql.conf has to be edited for the appropriate IP port and host settings...

Greetings,

I have installed Postgresql from the William Kyngesbury distribution (http://www.kyngchaos.com/wiki/software:postgres)

I do not get any errors starting the server, but it fails on createdb: "No such file or directory".

I note that the initdb did not create a postgres.conf file in /usr/local/pgsql/data
