[Mapbender-dev] Telascience autoupdate disabled

So today I investigated and found out that updating every 10 minutes is
too much if postgres is not autovacuumed.

Does anyone know why there are two postgres installations (8.0.8 and
8.1.5) are on that system. (The currently active version is 8.0.8)


And a note:

The cronjob contained these lines:

*/10 * * * * svnupdate
*/11 * * * * dbupdate

That runs svnupdate every 10 minutes and dbupdate every 11 minutes
I don't think thats what is intended, which would rather be: "run dbupdate one minute
after svnupdate" 
To accomplish this I suggest we make a single script that runs 
svnupdate waits for it to finish, and then runs dbupdate


In fact I have taken the liberty of doing exactly that. 
The script can be found at /usr/local/bin/mapbender_update
