You can see what is your default run level with: # grep default: /etc/inittab id:3:initdefault: In the above case, 3 is the default run level. Now, what is the status of PostgreSQL? # /sbin/chkconfig --list postgresql postgresql 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:off 4:off 5:off 6:off In this case, it is off in all run levels!!! Maybe that's your case too. To make it startup on run level 3 (the default in this example), you must do: # /sbin/chkconfig --level 3 postgresql on And now, you will see: # /sbin/chkconfig --list postgresql postgresql 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:on 4:off 5:off 6:off Now, so you don't need to reboot just to get PostgreSQL, do: # service postgresql start Happy hacking...
