After a reboot today Postgresql 8.1 came back up and started
accepting connections over TCP but the unix socket file was missing.
This is on Debian Stable, and I can't imagine what might of removed
the file.
Running psql I get:
$ psql test
psql: could not connect to server: No such file or directory
Is the server running locally and accepting
connections on Unix domain socket
"/var/run/postgresql/.s.PGSQL.5432"?
Yep, missing:
$ ls -la /var/run/postgresql
total 8
drwxrwsr-x 2 postgres postgres 4096 2006-06-21 17:03 .
drwxr-xr-x 16 root root 4096 2006-06-21 21:10 ..
Config looks ok:
/etc/postgresql/8.1/main$ fgrep unix_socket_dir postgresql.conf
unix_socket_directory = '/var/run/postgresql'
Startup option:
$ ps ux -u postgres | grep unix_socket
postgres 1512 0.0 0.3 17564 3476 ? S 17:02 0:00
/usr/lib/postgresql/8.1/bin/postmaster -D /var/lib/postgresql/8.1/main -c
unix_socket_directory=/var/run/postgresql -c
config_file=/etc/postgresql/8.1/main/postgresql.conf -c
hba_file=/etc/postgresql/8.1/main/pg_hba.conf -c
ident_file=/etc/postgresql/8.1/main/pg_ident.conf
Hum. lsof knows about the file.
$ lsof -p 1512 | grep /var/run
postmaste 1512 postgres 4u unix 0xf78b5980 1631
/var/run/postgresql/.s.PGSQL.5432
Any ideas what happened to the socket?
I had to stop and start the postmaster to get the socket back.
