To start with, it worked but the pg_hba.conf entry appeared to be wrong.  I tried changing that and then the current problem started.  I tried "listen_addresses = '*'"; then back to just 'localhost'.

Since I have maximum logging enabled, I don't think it is getting as far as reading the configuration files - that is not mentioned in the log.

There is no other instance of postgres running.

What problems?

Have you run ps to see if there is another instance of Postgres running?



Currently it says:

listen_addresses = 'localhost'
