Hi
I can start postmaster, but it does not generate a socket.
I startet the postmaster with -i,
in postgresql.conf I set tcpip_socket=true
unix_socket_directory = '/tmp'
in pg_hba.conf I set the server's and the client's ip-address to trust.
The attempt to connect via PHP4 results in the mesage:
Warning: Unable to connect to PostgreSQL server: could not connect to server: No such file or directory Is the server running locally and accepting connections on Unix domain socket "/var/run/postgresql/.s.PGSQL.5432"?
Why does it expect the socket in /var/run/postgresql/ and why does the Postmaster not create any socket at all?
Thanks very much
Christoph Della Valle

okay ...

You seem to be using a nonstandard build of the client-side code that
expects unix_socket_directory to be "/var/run/postgresql". You can
either change the postmaster's setting to agree, or fix the client
to look in /tmp.
