Dear All:
Is it safe/recommended to install programme/packages under login as ROOT.  I'm trying to install php/apache. It run make and install properly but not create any directory and php-dist.ini or libphp.a. 

One other problem my postgresql is running fine I have install it earlier but rpm -q pgsql give message of "PACKAGE NOT INSTALLED", do u have any idea.
