No it doesn’t matter if run with sudo, postgres or even root. Debian actually wraps the command and executes some some initial scripts with different privileges but ends up making sure that Postgres ends up running under the postgres user. I get the same output if run with sudo: sudo systemctl status postgresql@9.4-main.service <mailto:postgresql@9.4-main.service> -l Error: could not exec start -D /var/lib/postgresql/9.4/main -l /var/log/postgresql/postgresql-9.4-main.log -s -o -c config_file="/etc/postgresql/9.4/main/postgresql.conf”
So you are talking about: /etc/init.d/postgresql which then calls: /usr/share/postgresql-common/init.d-functions Or is there another setup on your system? Any relevant information in the system logs?
Thanks, though. -Shawn
