Hi List , I have installed PostgreSQL server in RHEL 5.3. I can able to start the database and also able to work on the DB by creating tables etc. When I am trying to connect thru ODBC from windows machine to the database server installed in Linux its giving the following error: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refusedit. For resolving the same issue I changed the configuration file by adding the host machine and listen_address = '*', but the problem is I am unable to restart the server. Getting the below errors, Can anyone help me regarding this? /etc/init.d/postgresql restart Stopping postgresql service: [FAILED] /var/lib/pgsql/data is missing. Use "service postgresql initdb" to initialize the cluster first. [FAILED] service postgresql initdb Initializing database: mkdir: cannot create directory `/var/lib/pgsql/data/pg_log': File exists [FAILED] Thanks and regards, Sanjeeb Rath | Technical Consultant | [cid:image001.jpg@01CB243A.93CBEF30] | Tel: +91 40 4444 1000 Extn: 3458 | Mobile: +91 994 947 0774 | sanjeeb.r...@infor.com|Q-City, 4th Floor | Nanakramguda Village, Serilingampally Mandal | Hyderabad-500032 | INDIA
