Hello,

I'm posted a short modification of the kill command.

The INSTALL file mention the command "kill `cat /usr/local/pgsql/data/postmaster.pid`" but the pid file contain the pid but not only, it also contain data directory and some numbers (memory usage ?, database characteristic ?)

So when I run the above kill command I get :

pcbu-testiris:/etc/rc6.d# /etc/init.d/postgres stop
Stopping database server: PostgreSQL/etc/init.d/postgres: line 11: kill: /usr/local/pgsql/data: no such pid
/etc/init.d/postgres: line 11: kill: (5432001) - Aucun processus de ce type
/etc/init.d/postgres: line 11: kill: (9076763) - Aucun processus de ce type
.

So I add a "head -1" to the command :

kill `cat /usr/local/pgsql/data/postmaster.pid | head -1`

Julien
