Hey guys

Rookie question….I have just d/l’ed Percona PostgreSQL 14 & unTAR’ed the archive.

Which RPM should I install first to set up a server?

I am trying to install directly from the distribution instead of repositories as I would like to script this eventually.

Thanks in advance.

Regards, Puneet

Hi Puneet,

percona-postgresql14 package requires a package with libraries.  
So it’s percona-postgresql14-libs

e.g.  
`yum install ./percona-postgresql14-14.5-3.el8.x86_64.rpm ./percona-postgresql14-libs-14.5-3.el8.x86_64.rpm`
