Обсуждение: Postgres at startup

Postgres is starting automatically for me at startup.

When I boot up my machine and then check the running processes I see postmaster.exe and 4 postgres processes.

How can I stop this?

I don’t want Postgres starting up automatically.

Thanks.

PGBIN="/usr/local/pgsql/bin";
PGDATA="/srv/postgresql";
su postgres -c "$PGBIN/pg_ctl -D $PGDATA stop"

If you have Linux/Unix, you must to find a soft link in your 
"/etc/rc[1-6].d" dir and must to remove them:

kjt:/# cat /etc/inittab | grep default
id:3:initdefault:
   ^^^
kjt:/# ls /etc/rc3.d/ | grep postgres
S20postgresql-my

kjt:/# rm -i /etc/rc3.d/S20postgresql-my

bye,
kjt

I'm guessing by the "postmaster.exe" that this is on Windows.

In that case, find "PostgreSQL X.Y" in Control Panel>Administrative
Tools>Services (where X.Y is your major.minor version number of Postgres.)
Change the services' start-up type to "Manual" (so you can start it
yourself when needed.)
