Hello,
Thank you for reading my post.
I am a novice PostgreSQL user.
---- OS: Windows 8.1 Pro
---- PostgreSQL: 9.4.1
---- Commands are issued in command line in "cmd.exe" ran as user
"postgres".
Some time ago, I created a cluster "my_cluster_1" with a database inside
"my_db_1".
Today, when I try to start the cluster, here is what happens:
==============================================================================
windows_cmd.exe_ran_as_user_postgres> pg_ctl start -o "-p 5449" -D
my_cluster_1
server starting
windows_cmd.exe_ran_as_user_postgres> psql -p 5449
psql: could not connect to server: Connection refused (0x0000274D/10061)
Is the server running on host "localhost" (::1) and accepting
TCP/IP connections on port 5449?
could not connect to server: Connection refused (0x0000274D/10061)
Is the server running on host "localhost" (127.0.0.1) and accepting
TCP/IP connections on port 5449?
==============================================================================
Question 1: How can I investigate what the problem is? Is there a log file
somewhere?
Question 2: Given the messages above, can you see what's wrong and how to
fix the problem?
Note that I do not experience this problem with another cluster that I have:
==============================================================================
windows_cmd.exe_ran_as_user_postgres> pg_ctl start -o "-p 5450" -D
my_cluster_2
server starting
LOG: database system was shut down at 2015-11-25 10:29:17 CET
LOG: database system is ready to accept connections
LOG: autovacuum launcher started
windows_cmd.exe_ran_as_user_postgres> psql -p 5450
psql (9.4.1)
