I cannot figure out how to do geom stuff with the Fedora 12 rpm binary install.
If I run
$ sudo mserver5 --dbinit="include geom; include sql;sql.start();"
then in another shell try and create a test database i get an error than monetdb (merovingian) is not running:
$ sudo monetdb create test monetdb: cannot perform: MonetDB Database Server (merovingian) is not running
If I run merovingian, then it starts the MonetDB with --dbinit="include sql" I can then create a database, but I cant load the GEOM extensions.
So I feel like I end up in a catch-22.
Can someone explain how I can run monetdb, and create a database, with the geom module?
Cheers
Mike.
