who's the owner for the database? have you tried changing it?
The owner was 'postgres'. I created the database according to the instructions in README.pgsql.
I have now recreated the database with nagios as owner instead. This seems to fix the problem!
"ps" now shows a different command line: ------------------------------------ 12637 ? S 0:00 postgres: nagios nagios 127.0.0.1 idle ------------------------------------
This suggests that the process used to hang or fail on the DELETE command before, perhaps due to incorrect permissions. (They were set according to README.pgsql.)
