Hi,

I download PgSQL source, compiled it, then try to
start pgsql, I got:


# su postgres -c '/opt/pgsql/bin/initdb
--pgdata=/var/opt/pgsql/data'
The program 
    '/opt/pgsql/bin/postgres'
needed by initdb does not belong to PostgreSQL version
7.3, or
there may be a configuration problem.

This was the error message issued by that program:
/opt/pgsql/bin/initdb[135]: /opt/pgsql/bin/postgres:
Execute permission denied.

I check the permission of postgres:
# ls -l /opt/pgsql/bin/postgres
-rwxr-xr-x   1 root       bin        2994176 Jan  8
09:53 /opt/pgsql/bin/postgres

But same code works fine on my another HPUX 11.11
system. File permission is same.

Does anyone have some ideas?

Thanks!

Zengfa

Try running the initdb program first.

Best Wishes,
