PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management
|
|
|
|
|
system (ORDBMS) based on POSTGRES. With more than 15 years of
|
|
|
|
|
development history, it is quickly becoming the de facto
|
|
|
|
|
database for enterprise level open source solutions.

Before you can run postgresql you'll need to create the database;
|
|
|
|
|
please see README.SBo.

You need a "postgres" user and group prior to building postgresql.
|
|
|
|
|
Something like this will suffice for most systems:
|
|
|
|
|
groupadd -g 209 postgres
|
|
|
|
|
useradd -u 209 -g 209 -d /var/lib/pgsql postgres
|
|
|
|
|
Feel free to use a different uid and gid if desired, but 209 is
|
|
|
|
|
recommended to avoid conflicts with other stuff from SlackBuilds.org.
