Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. However, at this time this bug lacks some basic information and is pretty general. Could you please try the following to see if we can get more information on the error:
sudo service postgresql start Does it return any specific errors? And please check: /var/log/postgresql/postgresql*.log Do you see any errors? The package installation is failing at starting postgresql "The PostgreSQL server failed to start. Please check the log output." so if we could get you to manually try and start it we can see if there is an error thrown out that can be fixed. -- package postgresql-8.4 8.4.5-0ubuntu10.04 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/665983 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
