Re: Install different directory issues

I'm not that knowledgeable of  Redhat  paths
here is how i would start
first find the daemon or systemd  postgresql.service files.  on debian these are located in /etc/init.d or /etc/systemd    if the files exist modify them to the correct paths if they do not exist the install went very side-ways  uninstall and and try again and read help files regarding the command line switches to change the install path 

If the the files are and paths are correct the something else went wrong.   either failed to register the daemon or initdb failed which will cause the service to fail to start.

try to  start postgres from the command prompt.  it will throw errors giving you an idea what the problem is

on debian logs are located in /var/log/postgresql/versionnumber/

Hi Justin,
I expect this is the case since the traditional install will have everything “fall” into the right place. How would I correct since I’ve installed to the /app directory?

Thanks for your help.

Hi Thomas

did you make sure the search paths and the paths in the config files were updated to find postgresql files.   I've seen this not get updated by the install scripts

I installed using the Postgres Installer package available on the Postgres site. With the system setup, I had to install to /app. I choose to use the installer because yum wouldn’t allow for me to choose a different install destination.

I’m not sure if I would have the same issue right now if I used rpm —prefix.
