Hi list,

I just downloaded the source from PostgreSQL 7.4.1 and installed it on Red
Hat 9. Install was succesfull. After this I installed PostGIS 0.8.0.

To test the PostGIS install I need the perform the following command:

createlang plpgsql postgistest

But on performing this I get the following error:

psql: could not connect to server: No such file or directory
Is the server running locally and accepting
connections on Unix domain socket "/tmp/.s.PGSQL.5432"?
createlang: external error

Anybody have an idea what could be the problem?

Thanks in advance!

Best regards,
Bart

Did you do anything to start the Postgres server? Just installing the
software probably didn't do that.
