Please enter a FULL description of your problem:
------------------------------------------------
1. If I kill postmaster then if I try to restart then I get errors
saying it is
already running.
pg_ctl: It seems another postmaster is running. Try to start postmaster
anyway.
FATAL: StreamServerPort: bind() failed: Address already in use
Is another postmaster already running on that port?
If not, remove socket node (/tmp/.s.PGSQL.5432) and retry.
/work/postgres/bin/postmaster: cannot create UNIX stream port
pg_ctl: Cannot start postmaster. Is another postmaster is running?
Please describe a way to repeat the problem. Please try to provide a
concise reproducible example, if at all possible:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
pg_ctl start
ps auxww | grep postmaster
kill -9 $pid
pg_ctl start
If you know how this problem might be fixed, list the solution below:
---------------------------------------------------------------------
pg_ctl should check whether the process and socket specified does exist
or not.
