Hello,

I have created a fresh cluster with

  initdb -D /some/path/pgtest

I can start postgres to run on unix domain socket serving this cluster with:

  postgres -D /some/path/pgtest -h '' -k /some/path/pgtest

But I'd like to use pg_ctl instead, in order to have clean control:

  PGPORT=/some/path/pgtest pg_ctl -D/some/path/pgtest -l postgreslog start

PGPORT should be the port number on which the Postgresql server is running(5432 is default), and  PGDATA=some/path/pgtest .

To start the postgresql server using pg_ctl you can use,

pg_ctl -D PGDATA start

to stop ,

pg_ctl -D PGDATA stop

....

Any hints how to use pg_ctl to start/stop postgresql on a unix domain socket?
