I did an upgrade on my database server this past weekend and the
database fails to start. I checked /var/log/postgresql and found the
reason:
[root@slave ~]# ps aux | grep postgres
root 5189 0.0 0.0 8128 956 pts/0 S+ 12:28 0:00 grep postgres
[root@slave ~]# /etc/rc.d/postgresql start
:: Starting PostgreSQL
[BUSY] server starting
[DONE]
[root@slave ~]# ps aux | grep postgres
root 5205 0.0 0.0 8128 960 pts/0 R+ 12:28 0:00 grep postgres
[root@slave ~]# tail -n 50 /var/log/postgresql.log

Does anyone know if this is a issue with PostgreSQL or with the way
Arch Linux packages the upgrade?
