Symbolic links problem

Hello.

I am trying to update Postgresql

Install PostgreSQL 9 on cPanel : David Ghedini


I manage to follow the steps but there is a problem creating the symbolic links

Code:

    root@s1 [~]# ln -s /var/lib/pgsql/9.0/data /var/lib/pgsql  
    root@s1 [~]# ln -s /var/lib/pgsql/9.0/backups /var/lib/pgsql  

Code:

#ln: creating symbolic link `/var/lib/pgsql/data' to `/var/lib/pgsql/9.0/data': File exists

I check if there are any symbolic link:

Code:

# cd /var/lib/pgsql

Code:

#  find . -maxdepth 1 -type l -print

And there is none.

There are any restriction creating a symbolic link to that folder.

PS: I don't want Postgresql to work with Cpanel I just want to update it.

Thanks

 

Strange thing happened

If I execute

Code:

#ln -s ln -s /var/lib/pgsql/9.0/data /var/lib/pgsql/data

Now in folder /var/lib/pgsql/data it creates a new folder data and that is made a symbolic link not /var/lib/pgsql/data

Si I have symbolic link /var/lib/pgsql/data/data pointing to /var/lib/pgsql/9.0/data and that is not good

 

Thanks.

That did the trick.

 

When I try to init pgsql server I get

creating conversions ... FATAL: could not load library "/usr/pgsql-9.0/lib/utf8_and_johab.so": /usr/pgsql-9.0/lib/utf8_and_johab.so: failed to map segment from shared object: Cannot allocate memory
