Hi,
I'm facing an error in starting my postgresql database. The error is as
shown below:
bash-4.1$ psql
psql: could not connect to server: No such file or directory
Is the server running locally and accepting
connections on Unix domain socket
"/var/run/postgresql/.s.PGSQL.5432"?
The default client config expects the server's socket in
/var/run/postgresql. Yours is not there. Try this:
$ psql -h localhost
But surprisingly the port was open at 5432, I got it confirmed as below:
top -u postgres

Is there any issue with my configuration?? Kindly suggest!
Looks like a non standard setup (data directory
/home/new_data/9.1/data). What is unix_socket_directories set to in your
postgresql.conf? (If not set then it is probably using /tmp)
