A reload would have done the trick.

Apparently you didn't use the same command line on the restart that you
used on the start.  If there's a service script in /etc/init.d/ (perhaps
/etc/init.d/postgresql) you probably should have used that.  A restart
through that might get you back to where you want to be.
