Thread: Postgresql starts but nothing 's happened !

 

 

I have a problem with starting postgresql.

 

I initialize database with initdb then I modify data in postgresql.conf file.

After that I run the postmaster with the -i option and when I want to test something like createdb, it starts to do something and stays in this state. Nothing's happen, the server works but like if it'd be crashed.

When I type e.g.  psql template1  it makes similar thing.

 

I am a newbie in linux and postgresql and I am lost in all these configurations I have to do !!!

Please help me
