Re: refdb-init.sh update

Hi,

Rich Shepard <[email protected]> was heard to say:

I'm afraid you're mistaken here. The reference database is created with the
following command in refdb-init.sh:

# create a reference database
if [ "${referencedb_name}" ]; then
    echo ""
    echo "==="
    echo "Create ${referencedb_name} as reference database"
    <prefix>/bin/refdba -c stdout -C createdb ${referencedb_name}
fi

The only time the script uses the Postgres command createdb is when the system
database refdb is created. I don't know how you ran into this problem though.

regards,
Markus
