PostgreSQL 15 on Fedora 37 Does not start after reboot


The service is enabled and reports a network error after reboot. Starting the postgresql service manually after the reboot is successful.

From the log file:

2023-01-01 09:22:26.406 EST [812] LOG: starting PostgreSQL 15.1 on x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, compiled by gcc (GCC) 12.2.1 20220819 (Red Hat 12.2.1-2), 64-bit

2023-01-01 09:22:26.417 EST [812] LOG: database system is shut down


Suggested fix:

Edit /usr/lib/systemd/system/postgresql-15.service and change the

After=network.target line to

After=network-online.target

This indicates that Postgres is starting before the network
interface is up, something that systemd is prone to try to do.

Right, although some authorities suggest also adding
Wants=network-online.target

In any case, that service file is not created or distributed by us.
I suggest filing this as a bug against the Fedora postgresql package.

This is PGDG RPMs (based on the unit file name). Pushed a fix:

https://git.postgresql.org/gitweb/?p=pgrpms.git;a=commit;h=b0d12f55ba4e0301137e51f7cda1f6ceb1448cd6

I'm inclined to hold this until next month's updates, as there is
already a workaround.

Ah, thanks.

Agreed.  I think this is not a problem if listen_addresses is "*"
or "localhost", so it probably doesn't affect all that many people.
