Hello
Am trying to install openbravoERP (it needs postgresql) on Kubuntu 8.4.
Through adept manager, I installed postgresql 8.3.
Initially it would not recognise postgres as a user - following tips on the
internet
I had to change the following line in the folder /etc/postgres/8.3/main
and in file pg_hba.conf - replaced
the line 'local all all ident sameuser' with 'local all all md5'
Though the K Menu ->SystemServices->Advanced->SystemServices I notice
that though postgres is part of the init.d script to start automatically on
boot, it is not running.
When I try to restart it, I get the following message:
* Starting PostgreSQL 8.3 database server
* The PostgreSQL server failed to start. Please check the log output:
2008-06-09 18:39:40 IST FATAL: could not access private key file "server.key":
Permission denied
...fail!
I googled on the above and searched postgresforum to come across your post here
... and followed some
instructions on changing the permissions on the server.key file under
/etc/ssl_cert/private. However
it did not work for me.
Here is a clip of my window:
