If you want to install the progs into its usual lacations (i.e. /opt, /usr, /usr/local) you must have root privileges for installation. You may login as root temporarilly, or you may type su in a console window th achieve root privileges as a normal user. > One other problem my postgresql is running fine I have install it > earlier but rpm -q pgsql give message of "PACKAGE NOT INSTALLED", do u > have any idea. try rpm -q postgresql and you should find it. Alternativly you may type rpm -qa | grep sql to see all packages which are related to sql databases.
