[ADMIN] Problems with PostgreSQL

[Can-Host Networks - Félix C.Courtemanche]

Hello,   We have been trying to install a MySQL <=> perl DBI / DBD on our raq3 systems lately and we beleive it really... _really_ messed up the server.   Although we are not sure it has to do with the problem we are having, here it is:   When we are trying to start the PostgreSQL Database (it won't start on boot), we get the following error message:   [root@www init.d]# ./postgresql start Setting up PostgreSQL: FATAL: StreamServerPort: bind() failed: Permission denied         Is another postmaster already running on that port?         If not, remove socket node (/tmp/.s.PGSQL.5583) and retry. /usr/bin/postmaster: cannot create UNIX stream port  []   Note that we are starting it from the /etc/rc.d/init.d/ directory (a startup script).   Would anyone have tips to find out what is the problem and help us fix it?  I totally uuninstalled everything aobut the MySQL dbd and dbi, as well as anything that could be in PG's way.  We also considered re-installing cobalt's disctribution RPMs concerning PG... with no success.   This is getting quite urgent because our administration system is based on it.   Thank you! ----------- [ Félix C.Courtemanche | Web Designer ] [ Head Designer | Co-Admin ] [ [EMAIL PROTECTED] ] [ Can-Host Networks | http://can-host.com ]
