After using the following:

nohup postmaster -i -D /var/lib/pgsql/data >logfile 2>&1 </dev/null &


I get this in the logfile:

DEBUG:  database system shutdown was interrupted at 2005-04-11 16:09:06 SAST
DEBUG:  ReadRecord: invalid resource manager id 155 at 0/766DB9C

[1]+  Exit 1                  nohup postmaster -i -D /var/lib/pgsql/data
 >logfile 2>&1 </dev/null

Is there any way to get the db running?

Thanks
Andy
