I'm having trouble connecting to postmaster without using the UNIX
sockets interface.
I'm starting postmaster as....
------------------------
fawad:~/bin$ postmaster -d 5&
[1] 2899
fawad:~/bin$ FindExec: found "/usr/local/pgsql/bin/postgres" using
argv[0]
binding ShmemCreate(key=52e2c1, size=1104896)
DEBUG: Data Base System is starting up at Sun Nov 19 17:17:07 2000
DEBUG: Data Base System was shut down at Sun Nov 19 17:17:00 2000
DEBUG: Data Base System is in production state at Sun Nov 19 17:17:07
2000
proc_exit(0)
shmem_exit(0)
exit(0)
/usr/local/pgsql/bin/postmaster: reaping dead processes...
------------------------
after that, when I run psql, it gives me the error
------------------------
fawad:~/bin$ psql
psql: connectDBStart() -- connect() failed: No such file or directory
Is the postmaster running at 'localhost'
and accepting connections on Unix socket '5432'?
fawad:~/bin$
------------------------
running netstat -a|grep 5432 gives me
fawad:~/bin$ netstat -a|grep 5432
unix 2 [ ACC ] STREAM LISTENING 12794
/tmp/.s.PGSQL.5432
I'm running kernel 2.4.0-test10 on debian 'woody'
Any ideas about what could be wrong?
Thanks
