The initdb command said I could use that command, but pg_ctl works fine now.  I should have tried that before.  I have always used pg_ctl in the past, don't know why I just went with the postgres command.

Thanks,
Susan

Don't start PostgreSQL with the 'postgres' command. That's the name of the actual server process. You want to use the control script, normally named pg_ctl. You call it like this:

pg_ctl -D $PGDATA start

Stop it like this:

pg_ctl -D $PGDATA stop
