Postgres installation on MacOSX - problem with psql I'm currently trying to install Postgres (using the installation package from http://postgresapp.com), i.e. downloading, unpacking, dragging the app into the Applications folder, launching the app. So far, so good.

However, when I then try to use the psql command I receive -bash: psql: command not found. I tried to follow the solutions in similar questions, but trying to locate the binaries through which psql or locate psql and so on all didn't work.

Am I doing something wrong? Could someone please provide guidance on how to make it work? Thanks!
Postgres.app has a short documentation here:
http://postgresapp.com/documentation/
which tells among other things:

Configure your $PATH
Postgres.app includes many command line tools. If you want to use
them, you must configure the $PATH variable.
If you are using bash (default shell on OS X), add the following line
to ~/.bash_profile:
export PATH=$PATH:/Applications/Postgres.app/Contents/Versions/9.4/bin
...

Not doing that results in the error message you're getting.
