The following documentation comment has been logged on the website: Page: https://www.postgresql.org/docs/14/server-start.html Description:
The url of the document is https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/server-start.html My suggestion is add to the documentation in the segment that shows the systemd entry inside the [Unit] segment the line After=network-online.target I saw in several sites that most people recommends using After=network.target but this will fail if the server is configured to listen on a specific IP address instead of just localhost or 127.0.0.1 the differences between them is explained here https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/NetworkTarget/#conceptsinsystemd TLDR; network.target is after the network is up (but presumably without address set, just the network stack) and network-online.target is after an IP address has been set.
