[postgis-users] installing postgis in Ubuntu 5.10(Breezy)

[Mikael Schröder]

Blair,
Yes everything finally installed fine! 
But were is the configuration file and the services autostart file? 
I ran:
/usr/lib/postgresql/8.1/bin/initdb
--pgdata=/var/lib/postgresql/8.1/data 
/usr/lib/postgresql/8.1/bin/postmaster -D /var/lib/postgresql/8.1/data 

But got the message that the server was already started, and thus the
port bussy. 
I killed the Postgres services och restarted it with:
/usr/lib/postgresql/8.1/bin/postmaster -D /var/lib/postgresql/8.1/data
-i
And after that It started up allright and I could connect to the
database through pgadmin3 at localhost.
After I restarted the computer the postgres-service was once more
without the -i option. 
and I found that /etc/postgresql/8.1/main contained another (or rather
the first database location). I changed that postgresql.conf to 
listen_addresses = 'localhost' and restarted the computer. But once more
the server started without the -i option or without access via
localhost.
???? were do I make the changes so that I can connect to my database
with pgadmin3?
Regards Mikael
