Hi, I know it is stupied, but I can not resolve my problem. I am using postgresql on many servers ( > 200). I install it on FreeBSD and till version 6.1 it worked perfect. I do not use ports from FreeBSD. I install it from sources. Also 3 y. ago I got from postgres web site a startup script for FreeBSD and it worked well. But after installing FreeBSD on my next DB server I make a copy of my startup script to /usr/local/etc/rc.d and after system restart pg do not started alone. If I login as root and execute /usr/local/etc/rc.d/postgres.sh start, all is ok. I can not find the reason for this mistake. My questions : - Exists some one using postgresql and FreeBSD 6.1 ? If yes pls. send me your startup script. - Point me to any direction to find the problem ( my pg version is 8.1.4). I wrote to FreeBSD mailing list without any reaction till now. Many thanks, Ivan. Also this is my startup script: # ls -l /usr/local/etc/rc.d/postgres.sh -rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 1327 Jul 24 21:25 /usr/local/etc/rc.d/postgres.sh #! /bin/sh # PostgreSQL boot time startup script for FreeBSD.
