======================================================================
* IMPORTANT UPGRADE NOTICE * IMPORTANT UPGRADE NOTICE *
The PostgreSQL port now obeys hier(7) by default, which means that it
installs into:
/usr/local/bin
/usr/local/lib
/usr/local/include/pgsql
You *must* move away your old installation from users' and
ldconfig(8)'s PATHs. If you rather install using the old-fashion
layout, cancel now and build the port with "make -DWITH_OLD_LAYOUT".
The pgsql user's home dir is /usr/local/pgsql by default, but can be
changed with for example chpass(1). Datadir defaults to ~pgsql/data,
but can be changed by modifying the ~pgsql/.profile script.
As always, backup your data before upgrading. If the upgrade leads to
a higher minor revision (i.e. 7.0.x -> 7.1.x), a dump and restore of
all databases is required. This is *NOT* done by the port!
======================================================================
To initialize the database, you should run initdb as the "pgsql" user.
Example:
su -l pgsql -c initdb
You can then start PostgreSQL by running:
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/010.pgsql.sh start
For postmaster settings, see ~pgsql/data/postgresql.conf
