I have Postgres 7.2.1 configured to listen on TCP/IP port. When the server starts up it still creates the socket file in /tmp. Removing this file manually does not seem to cause any problem for the application.
Is there a way to prevent postmaster from creating this file? Is this really safe to remove the socket file, or would it create some problem that I won't necessarily see? Thanks, Mike. ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 5: Have you checked our extensive FAQ? http://www.postgresql.org/users-lounge/docs/faq.html
