PostgreSQL version: 7.4

Operating system: HP-UX 11.00

Description: Initdb fails ...

Details:

Hi all,
I'm trying to upgrade my 7.3.4 database to the lasted 7.4.2 on my HP-UX
11.00 box.

I remove the old database and try an initdb to initialise the new one.
Unfortunatly, it fails w/ following message :

initdb -D $PGDATA
The files belonging to this database system will be owned by user
"postgres".
This user must also own the server process.

The database cluster will be initialized with locale C.

initdb: failed

I think this problem is related to HP-UX 11.00 because I test my upgrade
procedure on an HP-UX 10.20 box, same database, same source and same
destination version w/o any trouble.

I use HP's buddle for GCC 2.95.3.

Any help very welcome.

Regards,

Laurent
