[CalendarServer-users] Fwd: Where are the calendars located?

[Mike Greiner]

Hey Matt, I've hit that error on two different machines. Both times it was because the scripts couldn't find PostgreSQL. Check your installation of that and make sure it's in your PATH,

When I use the run script, it just works, but not when I try to fire up the server from the command line. I know I'm missing something obvious, just not sure what. The caldavd.plist file is correct as far as I can tell.
