Hello Alan,

From /usr/doc/postgresql-7.0.2/README.rpm it says...;-)

NOTE: The 7.0 RPMs are only being built under RedHat 6.2! They
may or may not work under RedHat 6.0 or 6.1.

But like you, I have come across the exact same thing...;-) _IF_ you
don't have any real data and are willing to start from scratch... try
deleting all files and directories under

/var/lib/pgsql

and re-run your postgresql start-up script.... Postgresql should create
an empty database for your perusal...;-)

If you have some important data... Well then, I strongly recommend that
you back-up your data from the

/var/lib/pgsql

directory before proceeding to delete all file and directories under
it...;-)

Hope that helps...;-)

Cheers,

John Clark
