Fixing this would seem to require teaching pg_ctl how to parse the
postgresql.conf file, which might be worth doing but it's a bit of
a large pain in the neck compared to the benefit ...
(For the record, I never did like the file-location-configuration
patch, and one of the reasons is the havoc it plays with the apparently
simple meaning of the -D switch.)

I just tried the same setup as yours, and it worked fine, i was able to start and stop the instance. could it be that the process didn't start at all when you started it? regards, ----- Jonel Rienton http://homepage.mac.com/jrienton Software Developer, *nix Advocate On May 6, 2005, at 3:36 PM, Joshua D.

you know what does work, if you issue the pg_ctl stop with /usr/local/ pgsql/data2 as the argument for -D pg_ctl -D /usr/local/pgsql/data2 stop odd tho. On May 6, 2005, at 3:36 PM, Joshua D.

However as Tom Lane pointed out the problem is that pg_ctl can't parse the postgresql.conf so if you use the /usr/local/pgsql/etc it doesn't work for stop. I have no idea why it works for start though. Sincerely, Joshua D. Drake > > odd tho. > > > On May 6, 2005, at 3:36 PM, Joshua D.
