Fix PostgreSQL installation instruction for OSX 10.9 #76

Closed minthemiddle closed 10 years ago

minthemiddle commented 10 years ago

PostgreSQL cannot get installed on 10.9, neither via brew install postgresql nor via http://postgresapp.com/. Hence, one cannot follow the scraping tutorial fully.

Oh I did not know this - thank you for bringing this to my attention! I'll look into this.

Hey @martinbetz - I was actually able to install it via postgresapp.com. Can you give me exactly the steps and error messages you encountered? Thanks!

Ok, I need to be more precise and actually installed postgresappand the elephant appears in my iconbar. But I cannot run postgresql directly. I needed to add a symlink sudo ln -s /Applications/Postgres93.app/Contents/MacOS/bin/psql /usr/bin/psql. I still have a problem then, but it is related to psycopg2. I will open a new ticket for this.
