I downloaded the rpm files (notice that this in not the current version) and installed them one at a time in the following order:
I logged in as root and executed:
rpm -ivh postgresql-libs-7.1.3-1PGDG.i386.rpm
rpm -ivh postgresql-7.1.3-1PGDG.i386.rpm
rpm -ivh postgresql-docs-7.1.3-1PGDG.i386.rpm

I got a message like this for each one:
1:postgresql-libs ########### [100%]

So I assume that the installation is ok. However, I can't find the directory with the start file. I did find /usr/lib/pgsql/test.
I looked in /etc/rc.d/init.d/ but couldn't find postgresql.

What am I doing wrong?
Where do I find the installation instructions for postgresql-7.1.3? I installed the docs rpm but can't find them.

Thanks,
Phil
