Hi everyone,

I get the following error:

psql: connectDBStart() -- connect() failed: Connection refused
Is the postmaster running locally
and accepting connections on Unix socket '/tmp/.s.PGSQL.5432'?

when I try to connect after having started the postmaster. The
problem is that unless I make /tmp writeable for everyone
postgres is not allowed to create the .s.PGSQL.5432 file. Is
there any way to make postmaster create this file anywhere else?

Archie
