Re: Service not starting on Ubuntu 15.04

Stuart,

You are a life-saver!

With those two commands inserted into the cloud-init script, the service actually starts and can complete my CREATE command.

Thanks!

I'd be trying 'pg_ctlcluster --force 9.4 main stop'  and
'pg_ctlcluster 9.4 main start' instead of service start/stop. If it
works, you have narrowed down the problem to systemd and/or the
startup scripts. If it doesn't work, the problem is elsewhere (eg.
some required path like /var/run or /tmp or /var/log/postgresql
doesn't exist or has peculiar permissions). If nothing else, you
should get more informative output rather than systemd hiding it away
somewhere.
