No, as its only one postgresql is running with default installation, server got restatared with out shuting down postgresql service properly. Then i tied to start server using ./init.d command, which didn't help me either. Then i created pstmaster.pid, that also doesn't help me much.
So what messages did you see at the console when you ran the /init.d script?

Will it work to get back my databases. Can you tell what command you use to start the server and when you issue it? Is that after OS restarts?) Did you, by any chance, use "restart" whereas you should have used "start" assuming you are using pg_ctl for the same? Issuing "restart" requires that you should already have server running (and that means postmaster.pid should be there in data directory). -- Amit Langote
