It sounds to me like bobbyw might have two separate installations of postgres (or at least two copies of psql), one compiled with /tmp as the default socket location and one compiled with /var/run/postgresql as the default. /tmp is the out-of-the-box default but I think Debian likes to build it with /var/run/postgresql as the default. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-performance mailing list (pgsql-performance@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-performance
