Problems with apache and postgres (already solved)



-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----

Hi!
Yesterday i upgraded some packages to Hamm frozen and has two problems. I don´t
 know if that where bugs or just my faults.
Anyway, i solved them and maybe this information can help others.
OK, here it goes: 
Number 1
        Apache 1.3b5-2
I had to uncomment "Port 80" in /etc/apache/httpd.conf. This was not nessary in
previous versions of apache as it was the default port for ServerType
standalone.

Number 2
        postgesql 6.3-2
Dpkg could not config postgresql due to problems in initdb. I tried to run
initdb manually as user postgres from the postgres home dir /var/lib/postgres
but this didn´t work because initdb could not find other programs (pg_id and
postgres). After adding /usr/lib/postgresql/bin to PATH it worked. 
dpkg -configure worked also after that.

Question: Is there a security problem when giving the user postgres a shell?

Greetings,
        Ramin
