I am using PG 7.4 I was creating a new Databasecluster. after a first
successful start of postmaster i wanted to stop and start again. pg_ctl
teminated with a message that posmaster won't stop, so i stopped it with -m
immediate. Since then it is not possible to start again. I see the
following:
2005-07-18 11:37:56 LOG: database system shutdown was interrupted at
2005-07-18 11:32:00 CEST
2005-07-18 11:37:56 LOG: checkpoint record is at 0/10
2005-07-18 11:37:56 LOG: redo record is at 0/10; undo record is at 0/10;
shutdown TRUE
2005-07-18 11:37:56 LOG: next transaction ID: 3; next OID: 16384
2005-07-18 11:37:56 LOG: database system was not properly shut down;
automatic recovery in progress
postmaster successfully started
hn@mozart:/mnt/ha1/postgresql> 2005-07-18 11:37:56 LOG: redo starts at 0/50
2005-07-18 11:37:56 LOG: record with zero length at 0/74
2005-07-18 11:37:56 LOG: redo done at 0/50
at this point the program stalls.
When i start pgsql i receive the followin message:
FATAL: the database system is starting up
psql: FATAL: the database system is starting up
I have tried many things even deleted the whole database and tried to
recreate it but the result stays the same.
Has anyone any suggestions?
Thanks in advance
