Hi guys, I just installed postgres-8.2 using the command line apt-get install postgres-8.2 and it seems the installation went ok, but when it tries to start postgres , it fails with this error message below... (by the way I am running ubuntu fiesty and on an amazon ec2-image). Any ideas what is wrong? Regards, Beat Setting up postgresql-8.2 (8.2.5-0ubuntu0.7.04.1) ... * Starting PostgreSQL 8.2 database server * The PostgreSQL server failed to start.
