to resolve this problem?

To enable statistics collection I updated few related entries in
postgresql.conf file but got following msg.

$ 2004-05-28 08:13:01 LOG:  could not bind socket for statistics
collector: Cannot assign requested address
2004-05-28 08:13:01 LOG:  database system was shut down at 2004-05-28

2004-05-28 08:13:01 LOG:  redo record is at 80/89392010; undo record is

2004-05-28 08:13:01 LOG:  database system is ready

Whats the reason for this?
I am starting Postmaster with -o -I option. (Enabled TCP/IP
communication)

The localhost is avaliable in /etc/hosts file.

$)ifconfig -a
