Re: Is the postmaster running (with -i) at 'localhost

I'm not sure what version of postgres you are using but if you are use 7.1.?
you edit the postgresql.conf file. The file is in the same location as the
data. Just uncomment the "tcpip_socket=false" and change the "false" to
"true". I'm giving fair warning "I'm a newbie". But this is how I fixed my
postgres on 7.1 RH
Hope this helps!
