Default Help Postgresql to start on Suse 10.2

Dear,
I am thinking to shift my software Axbo7.1 (see
http://axbo.co.in/ )
to postgresql from mysql.
I have Suse 10.2 operating system in my organization.I
install version 8.1.5-13 successfuly.
but when I start server as------------>
pg_ctl start -D /var/lib/pgsql/data
then error is----------------->
postmaster started.
Could not open directory "base" No such file or
directory.

If you can't help then give any of address from whom I
can get help.

It's been a few years since I've used SUSE, but I'm guessing that you
need to start it as a service from a file in the /etc/init.d
directory, or something like that.

Note that 8.1.5 is a bit out of date, but I don't know if SUSE
backports bug fixes to earlier versions or releases whole new
versions. 8.1.x is up to 8.1.11 now, so you should look at updating
to that version while you're doing all this.

If you must start it by hand, then use initdb -D /var/lib/pgsql/data
first to initialize the db.

The Postgresql version which comes with Suse 10.2 actually is 8.2.6.
If there is no reason to downgrade I would recommend to use 8.2.6 or at least
the latest from the 8.1.x version which is 8.1.11 actually.

You did not write what package exactly you installed, but I assume it is not a
Suse RPM. So you most probably have to initdb first. See chapter 16.2 of the
usermanual about details. If you use the Suse RPM install and start the
server with the script under /etc/rc.d the system would take care doing the
initdb for you.

Best regards
Ivo

rcpostgresql start
or
/etc/init.d/postgresql start

If you need to configure it, edit /etc/sysconfig/postgresql

Most of the time this is because of the pg_hba.conf file.
