Re: postgres service can't restart/start

the permission and owner are right.  to add the authentication into the pg_hba.conf but when I try to start up the postgres, it prompts me for password logged in, even I logged in directly from postgres os user not su from root and/or another os user.

==== AUTHENTICATING FOR org.freedesktop.systemd1.manage-units ===
Authentication is required to manage system services or units.
Authenticating as: user1

Password:
==== AUTHENTICATION COMPLETE ====
Failed to start postgres-11.service: unit not found
SA worked around with me and still can't start the postgresql service.

Verify file permission is right, sometimes if you edit a conf file it changes owner and access permission

Hi experts,

I am trying to install Postgresql 11.1 replication master-slave.  The configure, make and make install went well.  Initdb to the shared drive and psql are up and running. After configured pg_hba.conf and postgresql.conf, I can't restart the service and/or reload.  Error is:

ATHENTICATING for org.freedesktop.systemd1.manage-units ---

authenticating as :user1

-- ATHENTICATION COMPLETE --

Failed to start psotgres-11.service: unit no found.

I worked around and add the postgres on pg_hba.conf and using pg_ctl to reload the service.  Postgres server stopped but can't start, it complained about checkpoint_segments which I have set its to 8.

Working with SA to reconfigure the authenticating and the server reaching out and getting authenticaion from org.freedesktop.systemd1.nanage-units.  How can I by pass this issue and bring the postgres up?
