[postgis-users] facing problems while loading lwpostgis.sqlinPostGIS

[ahmadbasha.shaik at wipro.com]

Tim, 

	Thanks once again, 

As per the installation document, PostgreSQL is required to be installed
before installing PostGIS.
	
Secondly, we did do a make clean of Postgis, PostgreSQL, Geos and Proj4
and then installed all of them. We carried out this activity thrice but
could not succeed.

In this path that you had mentioned 
./configure --with-pgsql=/usr/local/bin/pg_config

Are you referring to /usr/local/pgsql/bin/pgs_config because the above
path does not exist.

Please help us as we are really stuck at this point.

Regards
Ahmad

I vaguely recall there was a requirement for postgresql to be run before
installing postgis.  Is this still the case, or have I not correctly
remembered?
