Where is postgresql??

Hello everybody,

I have a computer with Scientific Linux. From a repository I downloaded
the packages rh-postgresql-* with the command apt-get install... The
thing is that after installing all the packages, I cannot enable
postgresql, because there's no /etc/init.d/postgresql file (even not
/etc/init.d/rh-posgtresql file, or anything simmilar).

From this page I followed the steps from the 7th one, since the
postgres user is automatically created:

http://sciense.sourceforge.net/downloads.html

I hope you have any idea of what's going on.

Cheers,

Look for 'rhdb' If that fails, the following will more than likely
locate it:

cd /etc/rc.d; find . -type f -print |xargs grep -l postmaster

Thanks a lot Geoffrey, I found it.

Re: [ADMIN] Where is postgresql??

Libs: ~/usr/libs/postgresql
