PostgreSQL version: 7.4.3
Operating system: Redhat Enterprise Linux ES 3.0 Update 1
Description: Restarting postgres appends extra -D argument
Details:
I installed from the src, I am using
/postgresql-7.4.3/contrib/startup-scripts/linux, I have found that
restarting postgresql via the sysV script or pg_ctl like either of the
following:
service postgres restart
pg_ctl restart -D /usr/local/pgsql/data
results in an extra '-D /usr/local/pgsql/data' being appended each time it
is done, you can see this by running either of the following after each
restart:
service postgres status
pg_ctl status -D /usr/local/pgsql/data
this isn't a problem for me, but I thought it might be a potential problem
for someone else
