postmaster does not start up

Greetings - this is with a newly-compiled 7.0.3 under debian 2.2 on a
pentium box.  All compiling went just fine; however, although the
postmaster is running based on ps, it can't be accessed. Any ideas will be
much appreciated.

If you have package libpgsql2 installed, get rid of it; or compile from the
Debian source.  Because of conflict with other packages, the location of the
Unix socket is now different in Debian.

v7.1 RPMs

Have the RPMs been published yet? I seem to remember somebody saying that
they should be on the web site by the last weekend, but I can't find them.
A link would be appreciated... I need some of the new features, but I'd
rather avoid working out all the strange file locations (i.e. not
/usr/local) for a RH6.2 system...

Cheers.

Hmm.  Where are you invoking psql from, and is it the same one you
compiled yourself?

ISTR that the Debian RPMs use a nonstandard location of the pgsql Unix
socket file, which means that an RPM psql will NOT talk to a standard
compilation of the postmaster, nor vice versa.

I've complained about that packaging choice in the past ;-)

They will be ready soon.  I said that I usually have them available
within a week after release -- release was this past weekend.  However,
if you need the new features _in_production_ you would be advised to
wait until a non-beta 7.1 release.

If you are just wanting to test new features, then the first beta is
appropriate -- but, IMO, it is not appropriate to put the first beta
into a production environment -- even though this first beta appears
pretty solid (as PostgreSQL betas typically are), it is _beta_. Also,
the first beta RPMs will probably only be available for RedHat 6.2 and
RedHat 7 at first.  Other distributions will be available later in the
beta cycle.

I hope to have time to work on the 7.1beta1 RPM's this week -- but my
work schedule has delayed me, thanks to some bad weather coming in to
our area.

Um, the Debian packages are .deb's, not RPM's.  Is the standard socket
location not /tmp? That's where the RPM's put it.  I don't know about
the DEB's -- ask Oliver.

No. /var/run/postgresql - it was necessary to move them, because long-open
sockets were being deleted from /tmp (it is, after all, a _temporary_
directory) by tmpreaper.

/var/run seems like a good spot for it.  How do you make sure clients
see it?  Do you have a symlink in /tmp?
