versions

Hi,

I just compiled and installed postgresql.

I found a webpage that showed a few steps to test the installation but it
was for 7.0.something.

I was able to create a db but there were two things that I could not do:

mytestdb-# select current_timestamp;
ERROR: parser: parse error at or near "select"

and

mytestdb=# create function test1() returns integer as 'begin return 1; end;'
language 'plpgsql';
ERROR: Unrecognized language specified in a CREATE FUNCTION: 'plpgsql'.
Pre-installed languages are SQL, C, and internal.
Additional languages may be installed using 'createlang'.

Now I noticed that I could get the first working if i used all caps for
SELECT. Is postgresql case sensitive? is there a way to compile it so that
it is not case sensitive? or can I not get this working because I'm using
different version?

Thanks,
-Al
