Hi All
I am using postgresql 7.2 on Linux. It does not start when i am trying this
/etc/rc.d/init.d/postgresql restart.
It give an error saying "postmaster already running".
I have done
rm -f /var/lib/pgsql/data/postmaster.pid
and
rm -f /var/run/postmaster.pid

But it still says the same. whenever i restart with the above command
When say "stop" it says failed and when i say "start" it says postmaster
already running.
Please help me out
