Start problem on OSX

Dear list,

I have a problem starting PG 8.0 on a OSX machine, getting this
    FATAL:  could not open lock file "/tmp/.s.PGSQL.5432.lock": Permission
denied

I checked the privs on /tmp
ls -ld /tmp
    lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  admin  11  4 Oct  2003 /tmp -> private/tmp

ls -ld /private/tmp
    drwxrwxrwt  21 root  wheel  714  4 Feb 00:09 /private/tmp

and of course, PG 8.0 starts on another machine, with the same OS
version 10.3.7, PG version 8.0, configuration.
Nothing found in system, console logs.

Did someone already experienced this ?
Many thanks for some ideas, I can't see what's wrong... (ok, its
late...)

Philippe

hi, how did you install PostgreSQL? from source or from dmg? which user are
you using to start the instance?

Perhaps that file already exists?

Many thanks, it is now working :-)
