I'm not familiar with Slackware (last ran it in 1995!), but many Linux distros have switched from the old init scripts setup to using systemd. If Slackware has also made that switch, then you may find there is a systemd service for postgres and instead of using the old /etc/iinit.d scripts, you now do something like systemctl start postgres-10.2.service Tim -- Tim Cross
