[imp] postgresql configuration with Horde/Imp

[Nuno Silva]

Hi,

have you installed postgresql from stock RedHat RPM's?
if so all you have to do to start postgresql is:
/etc/rc.d/init.d/postgresql start

then you must create the horde tables with "pgsql"; to do this:
#su - postgres
$psql
[and from here follow the instructions on horde/imp to create the 
database and the default tables]


Good luck,
Nuno
