I ran:
pg_ctlcluster 9.1 main start
Received:
The PostgreSQL server failed to start. Please check the log output.
But, hey, in /var/log/postgresql, there was absolutely no logging.
Nothing. After some googling, I tried:
usr/lib/postgresql/9.1/bin/postgres -D /data/postgresql/9.1/main -c
config_file=/etc/postgresql/9.1/main/postgresql.conf
From the command line, which spit out to the terminal:
2013-07-12 02:04:05 GMT [30091]: [1-1] FATAL: data directory
"/data/postgresql/9.1/main" has group or world access
OK, so where the heck did this error message go when I was running
pg_ctlcluster? It would have saved me a lot of time.
By default pg_ctlcluster script redirects postmaster's stderr into
/var/log/postgresql/postgresql-9.1-main.log.
This works only if log_destination is stderr and logging_collector is
disabled, else the logs are stored where configured by log_destination,
log_filename and log_directory in your postgresql.conf file.
Advice is to look into your postgresql.conf how (and if) logging is
configured.
Regards,
Giuseppe.
