Not a problem. We all need help from time to time.
Maybe some time you will be able to help me as well.
Nice meeting you too.
Have a great day.

Hi,
Thanks
for the quick reply. Could you please guide me where could I check the settings
or so to identify where postmaster is trying to create the pid file?

I would check where postmaster is trying to create the pid and
check if postgres has permission to write to the folder.
Then Maybe change the location for pid
creation.
Check also postgreslog and see if you can
spot the error.
