My OS is RHL9. I installed postgresql-8.0.2. There are the alterations I remembered. (1) in /etc/init.d/postgresql change " su -l postgres -s /bin/sh -c "/usr/bin/pg_ctl -D $PGDATA -p /usr/bin/postmaster -o "-i" '-p ${PGPORT}' start > /dev/null 2>&1" < /dev/null" to
" su -l postgres -s /bin/sh -c "/usr/bin/pg_ctl -o "-i" -D $PGDATA -p /usr/bin/postmaster start > /dev/null 2>&1" < /dev/null"
(2) in /var/lib/pgsql/data/pg_hba.conf append
" host rftDatabase "username" "host-ip" 255.255.255.255 trust"
(3) su postgres; adduser globus
When I do "/etc/init.d/postgresql start", it seems fine. But there is an error when I do "createdb rftDatabase"
Here is the error message.
globus@flutefly globus]$ /etc/init.d/postgresql start
Postmaster already running.
[globus@flutefly globus]$ createdb rftDatabase
createdb: could not connect to database template1: FATAL: Missing or erroneous pg_hba.conf file, see postmaster log for details
Then I changed the /var/lib/pgsql/data/pg_hba.conf with "host rftDatabase "globus" "140.112.20.168" 255.255.255.255 trust"
And I can't start the database anymore. Here is the new error message. [globus@flutefly globus]$ /etc/init.d/postgresql start
Starting postgresql service: standard in must be a tty
[FAILED]
I am appreciated any help. Thanks a lot. James Yu
