Re: PostgreSQL 11 with SSL on Linux

[Susan Joseph <sandajoseph@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

OK, when I went to PostgreSQL to get the rpm file to install I was given:

yum install https://download.postgresql.org/pub/repos/yum/reporpms/EL-7-x86_64/pgdg-redhat-repo-latest.noarch.rpm


I put the file  pgdg-redhat-repo-latest.noarch.rpm in my /tmp directory and ran rpm -i on the file.

If I run rpm -qa | grep postgres

I get postgresql-libs-9.2.24-4.el7_8.x86_64


When I run:       rpm -ql postgresql-libs-9.2.24-4.el7_8.x86_64  I just get a list of libraries. 



I am not an SA, I am more of an engineer and have been working with the PostgreSQL I installed by building it so not really used to RPM.   I have used YUM but that was with a connected server.

How do I find all the packages that I need to have to do an install locally?

So when I run rpm -i it says that the package is installed, but I can't find a postgresql directory with all the files and executables.  So what am I missing?

The server stuff is in postgresql11-serverif you're using the community rpms.
