Ok, got the default database (postgres) running.

Trying to create a "user" database for the application.

Can anyone spot what im doing wrong here?

createdb -e -D /pgsql/DEV -E UTF8 -l en_US.UTF-8 -O postgres DEV

CREATE DATABASE "DEV" OWNER postgres TABLESPACE "/pgsql/DEV" ENCODING 'UTF8'
LC_COLLATE 'en_US.UTF-8' LC_CTYPE 'en_US.UTF-8';

createdb: database creation failed: ERROR: tablespace "/pgsql/DEV" does not
exist

I have a filesystem dedicated for this database:

$ df -hlTP /pgsql

Filesystem Type Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on

/dev/mapper/pgsql-pgsql ext4 126G 61M 126G 1% /pgsql

It's owned by the postgres account, and it's currently empty.

$ ls -ld /pgsql

drwxr-xr-x. 3 postgres postgres 4096 Feb 22 11:24 /pgsql/
