1. Check "ps auxw | grep postgres" to see if it's running.
2. If so, check your PG logs and see if you see any activity. Turn
connection and statement logging on and see what appears.

Any chance you could give me some pointers on activating logging? My
thoughts were to log
log_planner_stats = on
log_min_messages = info
Anything else?
