I just tried to set up a PostgreSQL server on an existing instillation of Ubuntu 13.10 server but I am getting an error trying to start the server and I am not finding anything relevant to the error searching the web.
Here’s what I did to install:
$ sudo apt-get install postgresql
$ sudo apt-get install postgresql-contrib
I set a password for the postgres user and edited the pg_hba.conf file as follows:
<skipping a bunch of comments>
# Put your actual configuration here
# ----------------------------------
#
# If you want to allow non-local connections, you need to add more
# "host" records. In that case you will also need to make PostgreSQL
# listen on a non-local interface via the listen_addresses
# configuration parameter, or via the -i or -h command line switches.
listen_addresses='*'
# DO NOT DISABLE!
# If you change this first entry you will need to make sure that the
# database superuser can access the database using some other method.
# Noninteractive access to all databases is required during automatic
# maintenance (custom daily cronjobs, replication, and similar tasks).
#
# Database administrative login by Unix domain socket
local all postgres peer
# TYPE DATABASE USER ADDRESS METHOD
# "local" is for Unix domain socket connections only
local all all peer
# IPv4 local connections:
host all all 127.0.0.1/32 md5
host all all all md5
# IPv6 local connections:
host all all ::1/128 md5
# Allow replication connections from localhost, by a user with the
# replication privilege.
#local replication postgres peer
#host replication postgres 127.0.0.1/32 md5
#host replication postgres ::1/128 md5
Then I try to restart the server:
$ sudo /etc/init.d/postgresql restart
* Restarting PostgreSQL 9.1 database server * The PostgreSQL server failed to start. Please check the log output:
