I've installed PostgreSQL 8.4 from the server:database:postgresql repository since it includes the pgAdmin3 program. However, after installing it, I can't get it to start! It should simply start with the "rcpostgresql start" command, but I get "Starting PostgreSQLcould not start server failed" as a result. I therefore ran "bash -x /etc/init.d/postgresql start" to see where it hangs. It seems to wait on the following command: + su - postgres -c 'LD_LIBRARY_PATH= /usr/bin/pg_ctl start -s -w -p /usr/bin/postmaster -D /var/lib/pgsql/data -o ""' could not start server Issuing the command as root on the command line results in the same result. Removing the -s option does not provide any more clues, and there is no log file to check. I have no idea why I can't start the server and don't know where to go from here. I've tried re-installing, downgrading, etc but nothing helps. Any help is appreciated.
