PostgreSQL server listen on other port than 5432

Hi.

I'm using CentOS 5.3 and PostgreSQL version 8.1.11.

I opened the posgres SQL to accept incoming connections:

<snip start from postgresql.conf>
listen_addresses = '*'
                                       # comma-separated list of addresses;
                                       # defaults to 'localhost', '*' = all
port = 5432
max_connections = 100
<snip end>

It seems that the posgres SQL sometimes listen on other ports than 5432:
# lsof -i -n -P  | grep postg

The extra port which is being used (17583) is a port that i need to
other services.
Did anyone see this issue?

Thanks

Never seen this before. One thing that does leap out though is that
you've got IPv4 and IPv6 sockets active at the same time. Does grepping
for "17583" show anything useful?

grep on what?
(on ps: there isn't anything).

I was thinking of something like:
  # find /etc -type f -print0 | xargs -0 grep 17583

Thanks for clearing this point; Empty string was found.

Are you using the Red Hat/CentOS postgresql RPMs, or some other
distribution of PG?

Odd, particularly seeing that that port was evidently opened before
5432.  The only idea that comes to mind is that it's being opened by
a library for Kerberos or LDAP or some such.  What auth methods have
you got listed in pg_hba.conf?

Yes, I'm using the original RPM that comes with CentOS.

"trust all".


The weird thing is that i used this port in a service that i wrote
only few seconds before this happened...

Oh?  How'd you start that service exactly?

I'm thinking maybe the postmaster inherited the open file from its
parent process.  If it's not marked close-on-exec, which evidently
it's not since the child processes have it too, then this could have
happened as far as Postgres itself is concerned.  I'm having a bit of
a hard time imagining how an open file could have gotten transmitted
from some other initscript to this one, but it seems more probable
than any other theory at the moment.

Do any other processes besides PG have that socket open?  If you stop
and restart the postmaster, does it open the socket again?

I guess you hit the spot: I have a service that I wrote in python
which uses port 17583.
This process restart the postgres SQL service using
"/etc/init.d/postgres restart"

I think that this may be related to this problem ...

I will mark the socket as close on exec.

Thanks!!!!
