The version of Ubuntu is 12.10. I am not sure what version of PostgreSQL it install but it is now 9.1 No other packages were installed (I installed 'make' to try and see the documentation). So how do I uninstall postgreSQL-XC if that is the problem? -----Original Message----- From: Adrian Klaver [mailto:adrian.klaver@xxxxxxxxx] Sent: Thursday, November 01, 2012 9:34 AM To: Kevin Burton Cc: 'Joshua D.

You should not have to reinstall the OS that is a Windows thing. A fuller explanation of how you got to this point would be helpful though. What version of Ubuntu are you on? What Postgres did you initially install? Did you install any other packages when you encountered the error, other than Postgres-XC? FYI as far as I know when you use the Ubuntu(Debian) package it runs initdb as part of the install and you should not have to. -- Adrian Klaver adrian.klaver@xxxxxxxxx -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
