I've currently got pgsql up and running but I have a couple of problems and
I'm wondering if someone can help me.
Here's what I'm getting where postgres should run the postmaster and powner
is the common user account:
[postgres@pusher pgsql]$ nohup postmaster > regress.log 2>&1 &
[1] 691
[postgres@pusher pgsql]$ su powner
Password:
[powner@pusher pgsql]$ psql template1
Connection to database 'template1' failed.
connectDB() failed: Is the postmaster running and accepting connections at
'UNIX
Socket' on port '5432'?
I setup just about everything that the docs said to, staying away from root,
etc. If I run that postmaster command from the powner user, then I can
access pgsql, but only as that user.
I'm trying to setup pgaccess and it is failing I believe due to this
problem. It's giving me an error stating:
Is the Postmaster running (with -i) at localhost and accepting connections
on TCP/IP port '5432'?
Here my setup
Linux Mandrake 5.2
pgsql 6.5.1
pgaccess 0.93
TIA
