Hello listmates, When I run the following:
postgres@zeus:~$ export PGDATA=/var/postgres/8.4/data_64/ postgres@zeus:~$ /usr/postgres/8.4/bin/amd64/pg_ctl stop waiting for server to shut down............................................................... failed pg_ctl: server does not shut down postgres@zeus:~$ /usr/postgres/8.4/bin/amd64/pg_ctl stop waiting for server to shut down............................................................... failed pg_ctl: server does not shut down postgres@zeus:~$ The Postgres 8.4 would simply not shutdown for me. Don't know why: Here's a snippet of /var/postgres/8.4/data_64/server.log seemingly corresponding to these shutdown attempts: LOG: database system was shut down at 2012-10-25 13:49:14 EDT LOG: database system is ready to accept connections LOG: autovacuum launcher started LOG: received smart shutdown request LOG: autovacuum launcher shutting down LOG: shutting down LOG: database system is shut down LOG: database system was shut down at 2012-10-26 12:14:21 EDT LOG: autovacuum launcher started LOG: database system is ready to accept connections LOG: received smart shutdown request LOG: autovacuum launcher shutting down LOG: shutting down LOG: database system is shut down LOG: database system was shut down at 2012-10-26 12:22:00 EDT LOG: database system is ready to accept connections LOG: autovacuum launcher started Would anybody know what's wrong with this picture? And how to fix it? Thanks. Boris.
