Hmm, very odd... I cannot reproduce it here, but I just committed an
improvement which could help
* pg_ctlcluster:
- Increase the timeout for the started postmaster to 20 seconds to cope
with slow startup.
- Immediately fail if the postmaster produced log output and does not run
any more. This avoids unnecessary timeouts on configuration errors and
the like.
For testing this, could you please edit /usr/bin/pg_ctlcluster, search the line
for (my $attempt = 0; $attempt < 10; $attempt++) {
and replace the "10" by a "40"? This will increase the timeout to 20 seconds.
Thanks in advance,
Martin
