All,

I am using PgSQL 7.3.1. After I application shutdown
and restart, I can't get PgSQL restart again.

Lock file "/tmp/.s.PGSQL.5432.lock" already exists.
Is another postmaster (pid 1979) using
"/tmp/.s.PGSQL.5432"?
/opt/iexpress/postgresql/bin/postmaster: cannot create
UNIX stream port


Does anyone know what kind of operation can cause this
error?

Thanks a lot!

Zengfa
