Anothony is right. Here's a startup script that you might find useful:
#! /bin/sh # # chkconfig: 2345 97 02 # description: PostgreSQL Database Server # processname: postmaster # pidfile: /usr/local/pgsql/data/postmaster.pid # # This is an example of a start/stop script for SysV-style init, such # as is used on Linux systems. You should edit some of the variables # and maybe the 'echo' commands. # # Place this file at /etc/init.d/postgresql (or # /etc/rc.d/init.d/postgresql) and make symlinks to # /etc/rc.d/rc0.d/K02postgresql # /etc/rc.d/rc1.d/K02postgresql # /etc/rc.d/rc2.d/K02postgresql # /etc/rc.d/rc3.d/S98postgresql # /etc/rc.d/rc4.d/S98postgresql # /etc/rc.d/rc5.d/S98postgresql # Or check out the chkconfig program, if you have it. # # Proper init scripts on Linux systems normally require setting lock # and pid files under /var/run as well as reacting to network # settings, so you should treat this with care. # Original author: Ryan Kirkpatrick <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> # $Header: /home/projects/pgsql/cvsroot/pgsql/contrib/start-scripts/linux,v 1.2 2001/04/19 19:17:44 petere Exp $ ## EDIT FROM HERE # Installation prefix prefix=/usr/local/pgsql # Data directory PGDATA="/usr/local/pgsql/data" # Who to run pg_ctl as, should be "postgres".
