How did you install Postgres and from where?

apt-get install postgresql-9.2 postgresql-contrib-9.2

dpkg -l postgresql

 

When I start it, it doesn't start...

Show the command you used to start it.

/etc/init.d/postgres start/stop/restart 

can you show the output of...

    pg_lsclusters

?

ubuntu has this whole infrastructure to support mutliple concurrent postgres installs...    the init.d/postgres 'service' will only start postgres clusters that are configured to autostart as shown by pg_lsclusters
