Forum OpenACS Q&A: Installation Problem: Server Startup Failed

I am following the online instructions for installation of OpenACS, i've installed postgres and aol server but when i do this step of the installation:
[service0@localhost service0]$ /usr/local/aolserver/bin/nsd-postgres -t /web/service0/etc/config.tcl
[service0@localhost service0]$ [21/Aug/2003:00:08:50][4011.1074099808][-main-] Notice: nsd.tcl: starting to read config file...
[21/Aug/2003:00:08:50][4011.1074099808][-main-] Notice: nsd.tcl: finished reading config file.

I go to my browser http://127.0.0.1:8000 and get the following error:

Request Error
Server startup failed: Error during bootstrapping

command "ns_db" is not enabled
    while executing
"ns_db pools"
    (procedure "db_bootstrap_set_db_type" line 72)
    invoked from within
"db_bootstrap_set_db_type database_problem"

wat should i do? is it a postgres driver problem? i installed postgres 7.2.3

Is postgres running? Look in its log files.

Try restarting postgres and Aolserver. Also, look through the Aolserver log files.

What do they say? Any errors?
