I am getting a strange error from psql:
psql: connectDBStart() -- connect() failed: Connection refused
Is the postmaster running at 'localhost'
and accepting connections on Unix socket '5432'?
Yes, the postmaster is running. I can run psql -l and get a list of my
databases just fine.
This is from the log file:
Server process (pid 18539) exited with status 11 at Thu Dec 21 16:45:54 2000
Terminating any active server processes...
Server processes were terminated at Thu Dec 21 16:45:54 2000

Which I hope will shed some light on the problem.
I have not only restarted my postgresql service, I have rebooted the
machine just to make sure. And ruined my previously stellar uptime. :-)

To attempt an understanding of Muad'Dib without understanding his mortal
enemies, the Harkonnens, is to attempt seeing Truth without knowing Falsehood.
It is the attempt to see the Light without knowing Darkness. It cannot be.
