Here's what the ps command gives: 

root@server# ps ax | grep post
 9165 pts/1    S+     0:00 grep post

Does this mean it's not running?

It's certainly possible that software updates have occurred.  There are a lot of people working on this machine, so I'm not aware of which changes have been made lately.  

Do you think I need to reinstall the works and set everything up again?

Hi Folks,

I set up postgresql on a CentOS 5 Linux months ago. I had a process that
ran every night and connected to the database.  Everything was working
fine until a few days ago when my process tried to connect and failed.
Now I'm getting:

# service postgresql status
postgresql: unrecognized service

Does this mean it's gone?  Does anyone have any suggestions?

Does ps ax | grep post show postgres running?

What is the process?

Have there been any updates to software between the time it ran and the time it started failing?


Thank you.
