Hello,
i'm using initdb of an PostgreSQL 8.4 installed over the port-system of
FreeBSD:
=====
> initdb foo --locale=de_DE.UTF-8 --lc-collate=de_DE.UTF-8
--lc-ctype=de_DE.UTF-8 --lc-messages=de_DE.UTF-8
--lc-monetary=de_DE.UTF-8 --lc-numeric=de_DE.UTF-8 --lc-time=de_DE.UTF-8
The files belonging to this database system will be owned by user "thorny".
This user must also own the server process.
The database cluster will be initialized with locale de_DE.UTF-8.
The default database encoding has accordingly been set to UTF8.
The default text search configuration will be set to "german".

WARNING: enabling "trust" authentication for local connections
You can change this by editing pg_hba.conf or using the -A option the
next time you run initdb.
Success. You can now start the database server using:
postgres -D foo
or
pg_ctl -D foo -l logfile start
=====
After that the database is not visible:
=====
> psql -l
List of databases
Name | Owner | Encoding | Collation | Ctype | Access privileges
------------+--------+----------+-----------+-------+-------------------
pgsql | pgsql | UTF8 | C | C |
postgres | pgsql | UTF8 | C | C |
template0 | pgsql | UTF8 | C | C | =c/pgsql
: pgsql=CTc/pgsql
template1 | pgsql | UTF8 | C | C | =c/pgsql
: pgsql=CTc/pgsql
(4 rows)
=====
So i try again to create it:
=====
> initdb foo --locale=de_DE.UTF-8 --lc-collate=de_DE.UTF-8
--lc-ctype=de_DE.UTF-8 --lc-messages=de_DE.UTF-8
--lc-monetary=de_DE.UTF-8 --lc-numeric=de_DE.UTF-8 --lc-time=de_DE.UTF-8
The files belonging to this database system will be owned by user "thorny".
This user must also own the server process.
The database cluster will be initialized with locale de_DE.UTF-8.
The default database encoding has accordingly been set to UTF8.
The default text search configuration will be set to "german".
initdb: directory "foo" exists but is not empty
If you want to create a new database system, either remove or empty
the directory "foo" or run initdb
with an argument other than "foo".
=====
Thats interessting. But i can't drop the database:
=====
> dropdb foo
dropdb: database removal failed: ERROR: database "foo" does not exist
=====
So: any idea why the database is not visible? And how do get rid of the
"non-existing" databases ;)
Thanks for your time,
Torsten
