Tom,
You were right i just considered that a few minutes ago before getting your
response.
I set SELINUX=disabled in /etc/sysconfig/selinux and it started up ok.
a note in this file: http://pgfoundry.org/docman/?group_id=1000048 would be
handy for those who forget easily and aren't sysadmins :)
thanks!

Smells like a SELinux problem --- you probably need to set the
appropriate security context on /data/pg. It might even take an update
to the policy ... not sure if the /var/lib/pgsql path is wired into the
policy or if it's just driven off file context markers. Look for avc
denied messages in the kernel log to get a hint.
Or you could just do "setenforce 0" but I don't recommend that ...
regards, tom lane
