#初始化生成数据文件
Darren2:postgres:/usr/local/pgsql:>/usr/local/pgsql/bin/initdb -D /usr/local/pgsql/data
#启动数据库
Darren2:postgres:/usr/local/pgsql:>pg_ctl start
server starting

安装过程中常见报错
编译时候报错：
[root@Darren2 postgresql-9.6.3]# ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/pgsql --without-zlib
......
configure: error: readline library not found --提示找不到readline
If you have readline already installed, see config.log for details on the
failure. It is possible the compiler isn't looking in the proper directory.
Use --without-readline to disable readline support.
查看系统已经安装readline：
[root@Darren2 postgresql-9.6.3]# rpm -qa |grep readline
compat-readline5-5.2-17.1.el6.x86_64
readline-6.0-4.el6.x86_64
通过yum search可以发现没有安装readline-devel:
[root@Darren2 postgresql-9.6.3]# yum search readline
......
readline-devel.i686 : Files needed to develop programs which use the readline library
readline-devel.x86_64 : Files needed to develop programs which use the readline library
......
通过yum安装之后，在编译即可通过：
[root@Darren2 postgresql-9.6.3]# yum install -y readline-devel
