Both methods works fine on server startup, but the first method gives

Yeah, pg_ctl is far too stupid to cope with such things --- it expects
that PGDATA points at the data directory. Short of teaching it to parse
the config file it's not clear what we could do about that.
Thanks. Summarizing:
$ ls /etc/postgresql
postgresql.conf pg_hba.conf pg_ident.conf
$ pg_ctl -D /var/postgresql/data -o "-D /etc/postgresql" start -l ...
... server started
$ pg_ctl -D /var/postgresql/data -o "-D /etc/postgresql" stop -m fast
works for the first method, and for the second:
$ pg_ctl -D /var/postgresql/data/ \
-o "-c config_file='/etc/postgresql/postgresql.conf'" -l ... start
and for stopping the same.
Have a nice day/night,
Ludo
