Yeah, I see. But I do not want it to bind to network socket. I want it to bind to a unix domain socket _only_. While all other postgres commands accept an absolute path as port specification, meaning to use a unix domain socket, pg_ctl seems to behave differently. e.g: I can start postgres on a unix domain socket _only_ with following parameters: postgres -D /some/path/pgtest -h '' -k /some/path/pgtest But pg_ctl don't seem to have an option to do the same. -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
