That in itself is not an error; it's just telling you that there
was a postmaster lock file already present. As the message says,
pg_ctl will plow ahead anyway.
If the postmaster doesn't start, then there's some deeper problem,
but you have not told us anything that would help to determine what.
Are there no other messages? If so, are you perchance redirecting
the postmaster's stderr to /dev/null? Not a good thing to do if
you want to debug problems...
