Subject: [GENERAL] Configuring phpPgAdmin and pg_ctl reload


I'm setting up phpPgAdmin and I finally get to the point where you reconfigure pg_hba.conf One of the lines says to reload the values, type the command pg_ctl reload. I try it as super user, no go, I su into postgres, it complains:

pg_ctl reload
pg_ctl: no database directory specified and environment variable PGDATA unset
Try "pg_ctl --help" for more information.



Okay.
Maybe it was just understood, but I was typing in word for word the entry from pg_hba.conf, but I'll keep that for reference later on.
