[GENERAL] Re: Is it possible to control the location of the lock file when starting postgres?

[Steve Langlois]

My apologies but I didn't include the command I am using to start the database


/usr/bin/postmaster -p 5432 -D /usr/xxxx/databases/pgsql/data
FATAL:  could not create lock file "/var/run/postgresql/.s.PGSQL.5432.lock": 
Permission denied

Thank you.
