Hi, 

I have just met a problem while running the script bootstrap.sh in my  aws ec2 instance to install the redash,according to the page:http://redash.io/deployment/setup.html.

I got these error messages:

    or with the pg_config option in 'setup.cfg'.

Anyone met this problem?

Looks like postgres wasn't installed. Were there any errors in the output in previous steps?

BTW, why aren't you using one of the ready AMIs?
