The following documentation comment has been logged on the website: Page: https://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.5/static/index.html Description:
Hi. I have just installed OpenBSD 6.0 with the postgresql package (pg 9.5.3) Section 17.3 of the postgresql documentation gives a recommended startup script for OpenBSD to be put into /etc/rc.local The path is incorrect for pg_ctl and postgres. These are located in /usr/local/bin and not /usr/local/pgsql/bin as given. Naturally this does not allow postgresql to start at boot. Also I used '-l logfile' which will write into the postgres user home directory as the /var/postgresql directory shown, although present, would have to have permissions or ownership changed to allow a write (I did not pursue that but dmesg clearly shows an error). Else the documentation is as always a great help.
