Reply with quote

I just merged postgresql-server-9.2
When I try to start the server I get the following error:

Quote:

# /etc/init.d/postgresql-9.2 start
* Starting PostgreSQL ...
pg_ctl: cannot be run as root
Please log in (using, e.g., "su") as the (unprivileged) user that will
own the server process.
* Check the log for a possible explanation of the above error.
* /var/lib/postgresql/9.2/data/postmaster.log

It seems that the init-script is broken? Is that possible? The package is marked as stable for me

It seems that my baselayout is too old. I need to upgrade my packages.
