Hello Admins,
When I am rebooting my postgres server I am getting below error. postgres user is not able to create a directory in /var/run, var/run is owned by root in our organization. So I have to create the directory manually, chnage the permissoin and start postgres.
Is there a way I can change the /var/run folder to any other location where I can manage the postgres permission.
