Hulou,

First, you will have to run initdb (as user postgres perhaps):

#initdb -D /path/to/datadir/(owned by by postgres) -E (for encoding, perhaps
LATIN1 for umlauts and other funny characters to work and sort) -L
/default/onRH7.3/is/usr/local/pgsql/share/or/where/ever/postgres.bki/resides/

e.g:

initdb -D /usr/share/pgdata/ -E LATIN1 -L /usr/local/pgsql/share/

This will create your system / cluster.

Then, again as postgres or preferred user, or by default, start postmaster:

#/usr/local/pgsql/bin/postmaster -D /path/to/datadir/ -i(for port 5432 from
outside ?) -B (number of buffers) -N (number of connections allowed)

e.g.:

#/usr/local/pgsql/bin/postmaster -D /usr/share/pgdata/ -i -B 128 -N 256

Hope this helps. Please swim for your smile through the docs ...

Creating users on your system is maybe beyond this list but have a look at:

It pretty much has it all. Next, start package-hunting to satisfy the various
depencies ... and good luck !

BR,

Aarni
