Hello,
I found out that LC_TIME was defined in the postgresql.conf file in the data
directory (where the data base should be created).
I edited this file and put LC_TIME='C' (all the other LC_.. were also put to
'C') and relaunched postmaster.
I got the following answer :
[G4:~] postgres% /usr/local/pgsql/bin/postmaster -D /usr/local/pgsql/data
LOG: database system was shut down at 2003-06-20 00:01:19 CEST
LOG: checkpoint record is at 0/7FFC04
LOG: redo record is at 0/7FFC04; undo record is at 0/0; shutdown TRUE
LOG: next transaction id: 480; next oid: 16976
LOG: database system is ready
I did not get any prompt. I invoked
createdb test
but got no answer, no prompt
I use PowerMac G4 with OSX.2.3
Thanks for your help.
