I am new to PostgreSQL. I downloaded PostgreSQL 7.1.3 and followed
instruction to ./configure, gmake, and gmake install. gmake told me
that I successfully made PostgreSQL and ready for installation. After
I installed, I could not get it started. I went back and did gmake
check. I got an error message which saved in initdb.log. Here it is:

The program
'/usr/local/pgsql/bin/postgres'
needed by initdb does not belong to PostgreSQL version 7.1.3, or
there may be a configuration problem.

When I checked postgres --version, I got v7.1.3.

I am confussed. Can someone give me some hints?

Thanks!

Paul
