Hello everybody,
I've just installed PostgreSQL and I'm unable to connect to it remotely from my main desktop (I'm trying to connect with pgAdmin 3).
My setup:
Ubuntu Server 14.04 x64 (Azure Cloud)
PostgreSQL v9.3.5-0ubuntu0.14.04.1
contrib package is also installed.
3) I'm unable to connect from my main desktop. Server is listening according to netstat. There is no firewall on the server and I've created an Azure endpoint for port 5432. Ideas?
Could you please share ERROR message,when you are connecting the database server from Client ?
Thanks & Regards
Raghu Ram

Sounds maybe like a botched installation. The only pg_hba.conf that should be present is the one in $PGDATA. Also, depending on your configuration and how long it's been running, you may not have anything the pg_xlog directory other than a subdirectory. I think, if I'm recalling correctly, that the subdirectory is named archive. WAL segments get written out here based on the setting for wal_keep_segments in the postgresql.conf file.
Not really certain when pg_clogs get written out,

Hi everyone,
First of all it's appears that there was something wrong with my Upstart conf file (Ubuntu is using Upstart instead of SysV init. Next year they'll also move to Systemd). Jay and Raghu: That solved my connection problem and /var/run problem.
So now pg is up (according to ps -aux |grep post). However pg_ctl status says no server is running. What's wrong?
About the logs: I have pg_xlog and pg_clog under PFDATA - nothing there.
Remote connection: When I try to connect to the server I get an error that my user is not present at pg_hba.conf. However, I see that I have 2 such files: One in PGDATA and one in /etc/postgresql/9.3/main/. What's the difference between them?

Be advised, at least my experience, that many linux builds require certain "undocumented" configuration options. At least some of them are hard to find, and configure --help doesn't always show them. Without those, things do get put in different locations than where the rpm's do. Also, make sure you remove the current rpms. You might just want to do the remove, and reinstall the binaries anyway at first.
