The problem is that the last MDK version is 7.4.5 . If you want version 8.03 you must compile it. It is easy : see the INSTALL file. One point of problem : MDK uses diferent directories to install postgres than the default instalation from compilation. MDK also has scripts to launch and stop postgres deamon. Compilation will not give you these scripts. I suggest also that you leave the 10.1 Community and upgrade to 10.1 Official. Community is a beta version. -- Marco AurÃlio ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 7: don't forget to increase your free space map settings
