I checked on the postgresql forum and received a reply. It appears that a program is attempting to query postgresql before it is started. I think it was dovecot. In any case, I reconfigured the rc.d file for postgresql to start sooner in the boot process. That eliminated the problem, or at least it appears to have done so. -- Gerard Forgetfulness, n: A gift of God bestowed upon debtors in compensation for their destitution of conscience. signature.asc Description: PGP signature

I had a similar problem before with an older version of PostgreSQL. The problem was that the rc script was waiting for input from the user. It was waiting for a password.

My suggestion for you would be to do a `pkg_delete -f' on your postgresql-client, and then install the newer version. After that succeeds, rebuild the port-dependencies listed above.

This should list what package is was pulled in as a dependency for. If that program is actually USING the postgres support (rather than having been built with support for it that you weren't using), you would have to carefully migrate your data. Otherwise, you will probably want to rebuild said package without the postgres support, then remove the postgresql74-client and install the postgres81 client and server. -- Nathanael Hoyle Systems and Networking Speed Express Networks, LLC [EMAIL PROTECTED] 432.837.2811 ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
