I seem to be on the same bug, I can see it is in discussion but not what to do about it.
Downloaded ubuntu server 23 June 09 Installed today and selected postgresql as part of the install. I couldn't get it to start up - ./postgresql-8.3 start * Starting PostgreSQL 8.3 database server * Error: Could not create log file /var/log/postgresql/postgresql-8.3-main.log I have tried all sorts of chown and rights on the directory and file, nothing works. I loaded up webmin and it can't seem to make head-nor-tail of this postgresql install either. createdb example - seemed to work, but as I can not get into pgsql I can't actually confirm it. My main reason for loading ubuntu server into a VM was as a database server (and a few other bits), but I can't see any actual reason why postgresql will not run. Those who have got it running, what did you actually do? -- Postgresql 8.3 not responding https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/193696 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
