Adrian,
There _was_ a library not removed when I removed -8.3.3, but that's been
gone a while. This had been running until yesterday when I could not log in
to my accounting software that uses postgres as the back end.
The reason I don't use /etc/rc.d/rc.postgresql is that it doesn't work.
While it supposedly su's to user postgres, it actually does not do so. Ergo,
nothing starts.
Looking for running postgres processes I find none:
[root(at)salmo ~]# ps ax | grep postgres
17168 pts/2 S+ 0:00 grep postgres
And when I try to start the postmaster as user postgres it fails (as
reported in my original message):
postgres(at)salmo:/home/rshepard$ LOG: could not open directory
"/share/timezone": No such file or directory
LOG: could not open directory "/share/timezone": No such file or directory
LOG: could not open directory "/share/timezone": No such file or directory
LOG: could not open directory "/share/timezone": No such file or directory
LOG: could not open directory "/share/timezone": No such file or directory
WARNING: could not open directory "/share/timezonesets": No such file or
directory
HINT: This may indicate an incomplete PostgreSQL installation, or that the
file "/bin/postgres" has been moved away from its proper location.
FATAL: invalid value for parameter "timezone_abbreviations": "Default"
[1]+ Exit 1 postgres -D /usr/local/pgsql/data
This has not happened before.
