The following bug has been logged on the website: Bug reference: 7754 Logged by: Gavan Schneider Email address: pg-...@snkmail.com PostgreSQL version: 9.2.2 Operating system: OSX Description:
FILE: postgresql-9.2.2/contrib/start-scripts/osx/PostgreSQL ; and many previous versions PBOBLEM: The comment: # For more information on Darwin/Mac OS X startup bundles, see this article: # # http://www.opensource.apple.com/projects/documentation/howto/html/SystemStarter_HOWTO.html # refers to a dead link. I wrote to Apple who confirmed it was dead, implicitly declined my request for a redirection, and suggested I report here. Suggest this bit of text be snipped as the underlying methodology has been deprecated for years, and is likely to be dropped soon. Specifically there seems little point educating those who don't already know this method. OBSERVATION: I am thinking this contribution should be enhanced/replaced with a method suitable for current versions of OSX? So far I have not found a working <plist> recipe for my situation (and I have tried quite a few) so feel poorly placed to offer anything just now. Happy to trial ideas as suggested. Esp. since I seem to have invented a 'tough' environment :( Could you point me to an active postgresql discussion of this, so I can get up to speed (still pretty new to the pg community).
