Greetings, Running /etc/init.d/postgresql stop results in: Stopping postgresql service: [FAILED] I ran an strace on "/usr/local/pgsql/bin/pg_ctl stop -D /data/pgsql/data -s -m fast" and it is sending a SIGINT to processid 5676 Here is a ps of the currently running instance: postgres 5671 1 0 02:32 pts/0 00:00:00 /usr/local/pgsql/bin/postmaster -D /data/pgsql/data postgres 5674 5671 0 02:32 pts/0 00:00:00 postgres: writer process postgres 5675 5671 0 02:32 pts/0 00:00:00 postgres: stats buffer process postgres 5676 5675 0 02:32 pts/0 00:00:00 postgres: stats collector process In this case, shouldn't it be sending a SIGTERM to 5671? If I manually send a SIGINT or a SIGTERM to the postmaster (5671 in this case), postgres obediently shuts down. 5676 is in the */data/postmaster.pid Thanks for any help, Drew. postgresql 8.0.2 Linux xxx 2.6.9-5.0.3.EL #1 Sat Feb 19 18:26:49 CST 2005 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
