Hi All,
I am running postgres on RedHat Linux It was running fine and our sysadmin
added a scsi tape device to the kernel and rebooted the machine so the
postmaster was killed with -9 signal and after that when I start postmaster
I get
FATAL: StreamServerPort: bind() failed: Permission denied
Is another postmaster already running on that port?
If not, remove socket node (/tmp/.s.PGSQL.5432) and retry.
postmaster: cannot create UNIX stream port
I have rebooted the machine since then and there is no file in /tmp
directory to be removed. I am absolutly positive that another postmaster is
not running and that file does not exist.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks
Ashok
