Here is what i did on a Ubuntu linux server. I had installed postgres using apt-get install postgres.
pkumar@ulinux1:~$ sudo su - postgres [sudo] password for pkumar: postgres@ulinux3:~$ createdb authDB postgres@ulinux3:~$ createuser -P -l authuser You have to sudo into postgres or fix your classpath From: rkevinburton@xxxxxxxxxxx To: pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Where is 'createdb'? Date: Thu, 1 Nov 2012 10:32:42 -0500 This is probably a question for the authors of a book I have been reading but it may be faster to get an answer here.
I was trying to follow along in a book ‘Seven Databases in Seven Weeks’ and chapter 2 deals with PostgreSQL. One of the first things it does is issue a command ‘createdb book’. The text before this command says, “Once you have Postgres installed, create a schema called book using the following command: $ createdb book’ But when I tried to issue this command (at a Linux command prompt) I get ‘createdb command not found’. Are the authors out of date? What is the current command?
