Hi, I've observed the same problem in my installation. Changing /usr/share/sympa/db/install-pg-db so that the sympa user has createdb rights doesn't help. The problem seems to be that the database gets created by one of the installation scripts, and create_db.Pg tries to create the database again. Removing the CREATE DATABASE line from create_db.Pg solves *that* problem. Then, however, we get a new problem:
/etc/sympa/sympa.conf file has been created /etc/sympa/wwsympa.conf file has been created Reloading system log daemon: syslogd. apache: installation seems OK ... apache: installation seems OK ...
