reducing the shared_buffers setting in postgresql.conf.

I think you probably are trying to run two postmasters at once. You really need to increase the OS X memory limits, instead.

No, I just ran pg_ctl status to check, and here was the output:

pg_ctl: neither postmaster nor postgres running


I then ran initdb, and got the error message I posted before.

I only want to run 1 postmaster at a time...any ideas?

Thanks,
Tim
