Been running Postgres on many platforms for sometime and never had much issue starting it. I recently installed on a
machineand get the following when trying to start it. I searched the lists and google and didnt find much useful
information.
PGSTAT: bind(2): Cannot assign requested address
Failed to start the postmaster
aegagrus:/home/dneighbo# less /etc/host.conf
order hosts,bind
multi on
aegagrus:/home/dneighbo# less /etc/hosts
127.0.0.1 aegagrus localhost
I am not sure why its addressing bind.... Any help greatly appreciated.
