BTW I have bitten recently on the attempt of change the default port. I did it as usual changing it in postgresql.conf but that parameter is overriden by: PGPORT=5432 present on the start up script.
There is any reason to still pass this parameter to postmaster ?
The init script needs to know the port number because it uses it in a couple places. Set the value you want in /etc/sysconfig/pgsql/postgresql ...
I know I know, but I'm wondering if this value could be retrieved from another place instead:
grep -e "port" /var/lib/pgsql/data/postgresql.conf | cut -d '=' -f 2
I know it's horrible.
May be write some words inside postgresql.conf or write some warning in the logs for sure could help.
