PyGreSQL errors

[Lee Joramo]

I am trying to get pygresql to work. I have a Cobalt RaQ3 server which runs
a slightly modified version of RedHat. The system came with PostgreSQL
pre-installed. When I import the pygresql's basics.py tutorial at pythons
command line, I follow the instructions to create a connection and get an
error:


>>> cnx = basics.DB('mytest')
Traceback (innermost last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
  File "/usr/lib/python1.5/pg.py", line 34, in __init__
    self.db = apply(connect, args, kw)
pg.error: FATAL 1:  Database mytest does not exist in pg_database



What has gone wrong?
