Hi All;
we're trying to get PostgreSQL configured on an AIX box (AIX version 5).
After some digging & adding various paths to LD_LIBRARY_PATH (Thanks
to help from Tom Lane) we were able to complete the source based build.
However, when we try and start the db we get the following:
$ pg_ctl start
server starting
$ LOG: could not bind IPv6 socket: The socket name is already in use.
HINT: Is another postmaster already running on port 3116? If not,
wait a few seconds and retry.
Have you tried a different port? Something else (other than postgresql)
could be using port 3116.
Failing that have you tried setting listen_address to only bind to an
ipv4 address to see if it makes a difference? (I don't think I've ever
tried ipv6 with postgresql on our AIX machines)
I've verified via 'ps' that there are no postgres processes running,
also there is no postmaster.pid file present in the $PGDATA dir
Thoughts?
Thanks in advance
