Dear everyone,

I was asked if I know any Python gurus/experts that could potentially
teach at a Python certificate at the University of Washington next
year. These are 3 hour long classes, in the evening, once a week.

Any interested parties send me an email personally and I can get you
in touch with the right people.

I teach in the UW Mac/iOS certificate program. If the Python students are anything like mine, you'll have a blast. The students in these programs are experienced and motivated folks who are going out of their way to stay current.

I assume this is a paying gig... is the money any good?

Hi all,

Been working with postgres 8.4.10 and is there any cheat sheet for adding
users, databases and restart or else the server.

Once I run the service postgres start command I get a FAIL message....

Thanks..

Mario

In order to help you please tell us what operating system you are
working with, next what command you are using (how you issue the start
command ) and whch exact error message you are getting.
Cheers
Karsten

Hi Mario,

If you download the full source and unpack it, there should be a file named "INSTALL" that contains useful information about how to get the RDMS going.  In my 8.4.8 installation, there is a section from that file that has the following info:

   This document describes the installation of PostgreSQL using the source
   code distribution. (If you are installing a pre-packaged distribution,
   such as an RPM or Debian package, ignore this document and read the
   packager's instructions instead.)

./configure
gmake
su
gmake install
adduser 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/postgres -D /usr/local/pgsql/data >logfile 2>&1 &
/usr/local/pgsql/bin/createdb test
/usr/local/pgsql/bin/psql test

I found this site which I think successfully installed on my new 64 bit intel laptop.
Haven't tested it but the install went smoothly.
