INSTLLATIONPROCEDURE I FOLLOWED

# cd /root
# chmod +x jdk-1_5_0_12-linux-i586-rpm.bin
# ./ jdk-1_5_0_12-linux-i586-rpm.bin then accept . this will automatically extract the rpm and install java to the folder /usr/java/jdk1.5.0_12/
# cd /usr/bin
#

Setup Environment variable for java home. Insert the following entries in /etc/profile

# vi /etc/profile

add the following entries

JAVA_HOME="/opt/apps/java/jdk1.6.0_25"

save and exit (!wq)

Then run the following command to commit this

# source /etc/profile
# echo $ JAVA_HOME , it should display
/usr/java/jdk1.5.0_12

Now java is installed. Proceed to configure postgres

3. Install and configure postgresql

Check whether postgres is installed.
# cd /root
# rpm –qa | grep postgres – It should display

postgresql-libs-8.1.4-1.1
postgresql-server-8.1.4-1.1
postgresql-8.1.4-1.1
postgresql-python-8.1.4-1.1

If not, do install postgres. Once installed you can configure now

# cd /root
# /etc/init.d/postgresql start
Starting postgresql service: [ OK ]
# cd /var/lib/pgsql/data/
# cp pg_hba.conf pg_hba.conf.org
# vi pg_hba.conf

uncomment the following lines

local all all ident sameuser
host all all 127.0.0.1/32 ident sameuser
host all all ::1/128 ident sameuser

and add the following entries :

local all all trust
host all all 127.0.0.1/32 trust
host all all ::1/128 trust

then save and exit

# cp postgresql.conf postgresql.conf.org
# vi postgresql.conf

and uncomment the line

listen_addresses = 'localhost'

save and exit

# /etc/init.d/postgresql stop
# /etc/init.d/postgresql start

Now postgresql is ready to use for opennms.
