Hey all,

There are an output of postgres process in a start time:

FATAL:  data directory "/path/to/cluster" has group or world access
DETAIL:  Permissions should be u=rwx (0700).

Is there way to allow postgres starts with 0770 ?

Regards,
Dmitriy

You have to modify the source code and recompile to do that.
