Yes that would be the standard approach.  But the Debian package removes
pg_ctl from it normal place and wraps it with a perl script in a way
that makes it difficult to work with (it doesn’t accept the same
arguments):

@Mangnus, can you give me an example of how I might use pg_lsclusters
and pg_ctlcluster?  I’ve tried:


I do not see a sudo below or is it apparent whether you are doing this
as the postgres user.

pg_ctlcluster 9.4 main start
Error: could not exec   start -D /var/lib/postgresql/9.4/main -l
/var/log/postgresql/postgresql-9.4-main.log -s -o  -c
config_file="/etc/postgresql/9.4/main/postgresql.conf”

Not sure how close Debian 8 is to Ubuntu 16.04(something I use), but
from your first post they look like they share the same startup scripts.
So something like:

sudo systemctl restart postgresql@9.4-main.service
                 ^^^^^^^
      Should be  start

    What about if use pg_ctl as the postgres user? That will give you
    a better idea.


You don't want ot be doing that on a systemd system, but try a
combination of pg_lsclusters and pg_ctlcluster. Might be you need to
shut it down once that way before it realizes it's down,and then start
it back up.
