Forum OpenACS Q&A: Re: PostgreSQL installation / "createlang plpgsql template1" / autocommit error message

I think I may have fixed this problem by adding 'autocommit = true' to postgres's .conf file.

Now I have a new error at the same step -

[postgres@localhost pgsql]$ createlang plpgsql template1
psql: could not connect to server: No such file or directory
        Is the server running locally and accepting
        connections on Unix domain socket "/tmp/.s.PGSQL.5432"?
createlang: external error

From a scan of the archives it appears that this error isn't all that uncommon.

cheers
