PID file is still used, but I beleive most issues with that one has been
solved by now. And if that is your problem, it should show up fine in
the error messags. Just remember to check all locations (startup
messages go in the eventlog, but if you're using the standard config
once postgresql.conf is loaded the rest of the mesages go in the pg_log
directory)
