Hi,
Looks like the options you have set to make postgres start as a service is
failing..
Check couple of things.
login as root
type mail at the promt and read the events..
you will see some mails to the root account & postgres too...
temp soultions is start you postgres as
/usr/local/pgsql/bin/postmaster -i -D /usr/local/pgsql/data &
temp soultions to stop your postgres as
/usr/local/pgsql/bin/pg_ctl -D /usr/local/pgsql/data stop
bye
