But server is actually not started. How do > we get debug information for pg_ctl start? This doesn't sound like a bug; it's probably an installation or configuration problem. Another list, like admin, general, or novice would be more appropriate. When it says it is starting, that means it is attempting to start. Apparently it is not succeeding. There should be some sort of log entries, either to the console or to a file, if you specified the -l switch to pg_ctl. Assuming you have permission to write to the directory specified by -l and you haven't redirected the log to /dev/null or some such, you should find something there which will probably be useful. -Kevin
