Thread: Start up script for Fedora Core 3
Dear all,
We are using Fedora Core 3 in our company, and we installed postgresql 8.0.3 as the database system. I wonder if anybody has the start up script for this version so we can start postgresql service automatically after we reboot the server.
Any help will be highly appreciated.
Chris
Hello, We have Fedora Core 4, but I'm pretty sure it's the same. To start the service we use /etc/rc.d/init.d/postgresql start Now if you want postgresql to start automatically on boot you do: chkconfig postgresql on Read the man pages for chkconfig for more details. Hope this helps. On Aug 24, 2005, at 11:31 AM, Chris Guo wrote: > Dear all, > > We are using Fedora Core 3 in our company, and we installed postgresql > 8.0.3 as the database system.

If you install the RPM distribution of Postgres (which is the way I'd
recommend, on RPM-based platforms), it comes with a suitable init
script.

Thanks, I found it.

If you installed it from rpm then the startup script should already be
there. If you install it from src look
in postgresql-8.0.3/contrib/start-scripts
