Installation Problem

Webb Sprague <wsprague100@yahoo.com> — 2000-08-15T00:12:21Z

Hi all.

I am trying to install 7.0.2 on RH 6.2.  Please help
me...  I can make fine, but when I try to initdb I get
the following:

<BEGIN QUOTE>
wsprague>initdb

We are initializing the database system with username
wsprague (uid=500).
This user will own all the files and must also own the
server process.

Creating template database in
/usr/local/pgsql/data/base/template1
ERROR:  Error: unknown type 'oidvector'.

ERROR:  Error: unknown type 'oidvector'.

	syntax error 12 : parse errorinitdb: could not create
template database
initdb: cleaning up by wiping out
/usr/local/pgsql/data/base/template1
[wsprague@lappi wsprague]$ 

<END QUOTE>

wsprague owns "data" & "base".  I get a similar error
when I su to postgres, as well.

Thanks again
W
