Hello,
I usually start postgresql database by running
root@fedora>su postgres -c "postgres -D /home/postgres &"
I'm trying to do it automatically at boot time, so I added that line to /etc/rc.d/rc.local. However database doesn't start.
Any Ideas?
I found the problem. It was Selinux. I also found the right way to start postgres in a custom data directory:
1. Configure data directory in /etc/rc.d/init.d/postgres 2. service postgres initdb 3. service postgres start 4. chkconfig postgres on
