Your server may be misconfigured (most linux distros are). Make sure your init script does not redirect postmaster's (or pg_ctl's) stdout/stderr to /dev/null. Also make sure that if you are using syslog, the syslog server is configured to save the messages somewhere useful, by checking the facility Postgres uses (configurable) and where does syslog save messages from this facility. The core file, on the other hand, should be somewhere in /var/lib/pgsql/data/base (if you haven't changed PGDATA), _unless_ the server runs under a core 0-byte limit (under bash, ulimit -c will tell you).
