Hi, I’ve recently encountered an issue running Postgres (both 8.4 and 9.1) on a VMware VM running Ubuntu 10.04 LTS as the guest OS with the data directory running out of a VMware shared folder. Previously on 8.4 this had worked out for me but after upgrading VMware and re-building my VM I’ve started to encounter this issue. It seems like the problem occurs when I run initdb, I get the following error:
So what is the host OS? Where is the shared directory located, which OS? What file system is the directory located on?
# sudo -u postgres /usr/lib/postgresql/9.1/bin/initdb --noclean -D /mnt/pg_data/
creating template1 database in /mnt/pg_data/base/1 ... FATAL: could not open file "pg_xlog/000000010000000000000001" (log file 0, segment 1): No such file or directory child process exited with exit code 1 initdb: data directory "/mnt/pg_data" not removed at user's request
What is in /mnt/pg_data after the error?
Thanks for any help, Cesar
