Hello there,
I have already posted this problem several months ago, there was no change
in the documentation since then. It's not about the installation directory
or username, under the new OpenBSD's the parameter ordering of 'su' differs
from the older versions, the right order is like Denis writes.

Subject: Re: [DOCS] Wrong startup script of PostgreSQL 9.1.2 under OpenBSD
5.1
Denis Lapshin <[email protected]> writes:
On page http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.1/interactive/server-start.html
was published a wrong startup script for automatic starting PostgeSQL
during boot under OpenBSD.
Here is a working one which should be placed into /etc/rc.local file:
if [ -x /usr/local/bin/pg_ctl -a -x /usr/local/bin/postgres ]; then
su - _postgresql -c '/usr/local/bin/pg_ctl -D /var/postgresql/data
start -l /var/postgresql/logfile -s'
echo -n 'postgresql'
fi
Right offhand it's not apparent to me that either of these can be said
to be "right" or "wrong". You are making different assumptions about
the installation directory and user name than what is in the
documentation, but your assumptions aren't more right than the docs'.
As stated there, the examples use generic choices that may need to be
adjusted for particular systems.
regards, tom lane
