Bill, These instructions have always worked for me: http://www.postgresql.org/docs/7.2/static/installation.html The important thing is to make sure you use gmake when compiling. Here is a quick install that I modified to work on BSD: ./configure gmake su gmake install pw useradd postgres mkdir /usr/local/pgsql/data chown postgres /usr/local/pgsql/data su postgres /usr/local/pgsql/bin/initdb -D /usr/local/pgsql/data /usr/local/pgsql/bin/postmaster -D /usr/local/pgsql/data >logfile 2>&1 & /usr/local/pgsql/bin/createdb test /usr/local/pgsql/bin/psql test I hope that this helps.
