I have been running a2t 1.4.3 with it's components for several months without problems. Unfortunately, due to storms last week, my system had a power outage and did not shut down appropriately. Now I cannot log into or access my db, because I cannot get postgresql server to start. I have tried starting from the cp, I have tried restarting the system several times. I have done site searches and internet searches and found that the power outage may be the culprit, but all their fixes don't work. I can't find a postmaster.pid file to delete. All permissions on files seem set right. I run command line pg_ctl start -D {datapath} and I get this error:
| Quote: | "Execution of PostgreSQL by a user with administrative permissions is not permitted.
The server must be started under an unpriveliged userID to prevent possible system security compromises." |
I'm not sure what to do other than uninstall and reinstall, but I don't want to lose my db info. Can I copy folders and put them back in after a reinstall?
Any help would be appreciated.
