Hello 

  Thank you for your guidance. 

Our Linux Admin team said that they picked up a RHEL9 package with postgres ( I do not from where ), and this package possibly did not have the complete set of executables.

They also said that soon they will resolve the issue. 

The first two commands work , the third command  rpm -q | p package_name does not work  ( p unknown command ). 

馃槉

The very first thing to do is: get informed about the Linux distribution you're working on:

	cat /etc/os-release

then use the appropriate tools.

The two commands you would need (IIRC):

rpm -qa | grep -i postgres

rpm -qlp packagename
