Hello,

 

I’m running postgres 8.4.5, it was bundled w/ Actuate 11 Iserver. It was configured to run on port 8432 (not sure why or if that can be changed, I suspect it doesn’t matter in the long run). When I try to run psql, I get this error:

 

/usr/local/actuate11/AcServer/postgresql/bin->psql -d ac_dr_reports

psql: could not connect to server: No such file or directory

        Is the server running locally and accepting

        connections on Unix domain socket "/tmp/.s.PGSQL.5432"?

/usr/local/actuate11/AcServer/postgresql/bin->

 

How do I tell it to look on port 8432?

 

Here’s the files in /tmp:

 

srwxrwxrwx  1 actuate actuate     0 Feb 21 15:23 .s.PGSQL.8432

-rw-------  1 actuate actuate    62 Feb 21 15:23 .s.PGSQL.8432.lock

 

 

Thanks.

 

Kevin
