Hi all,
This is a very basic problem I'm running into here. I'm trying to install 4.0.1 EE on Red Hat. Installing via terminal, everything goes well until about half way through the install process I get the following error:
Done a bit of googling on it but I can't find any solutions to this, anyone else have an idea?
I'm doing the install as the root user, gave total permissions to the installer (alfresco-enterprise-4.0.1-installer-linux-x64.bin) and total permissions on the folder I was installing Alfresco to /home/alfresco/alfresco-4.0.1.
Any help here would be great.
Thanks,
Ben.

Are you installing as Root, sudo root or as regular user?
I believe you have to run the install script as root or with sudo, or you wont have the PostgresSQL privileges.
(1) Download the install file
(2) chmod it to execute, >chnmod +x alrescoxxx.bin
(3) > sudo su - (and login)
(4) Change dirs to alfresco bin folder
(5) ./alfrescoxxx.bin
ALSO - Make sure you dont have Postgres already installed, you dont want any conflicts.
