I just compiled and installed postgresql from the cvs (upgraded from 7.1beta5
becuase of some problems I had), followed the steps, and the database server
works great, but my startup scripts don't work anymore.
What the script has, works if I try to do it as postgres, but with a
su -l postgres -c 'command' as root it doesn't work.
This is the script (on Solaris 7):
#!/bin/bash
# postgresql This is the init script for starting up the PostgreSQL
# server
#
# chkconfig: 345 85 15
# description: Starts and stops the PostgreSQL backend daemon that handles \
# all database requests.
# processname: postmaster
#
# This script is slightly unusual in that the name of the daemon (postmaster)
# is not the same as the name of the subsystem (postgresql)
# See how we were called.

System Administration: It's a dirty job,
but someone told me I had to do it.
