RE: [TCLUG:17351] pgsql

["Schlough, Mark" <Mark.Schlough@mortgage.wellsFargo.COM>]

ftp://ftp.postgresql.org/pub/RPMS/redhat-6.x/ 

has the RPMS,  I chose the ones with "nl" (no locale)  I don't need it,
unless you know why you need it, you won't.

install the RPMS

you should then be able to do a 

/etc/rc.d/init.d/postgresql start

it should then initialise the stuff as the first time.


There will be docs in the /usr/doc/postgresql-XXX

to create a database log in as postgres and do a 

createdb "database_name"

then you can do a psql "database_name"


Let me know if you need more help.
