Debian Lenny PostgreSQL 8.3 start problem

laissez un commentaire »

When you install postgresql-8.3 debian package on lenny/sid actually it fails to start. Anyway, it’s my problem today. Log messages report:

  • couldn’t resolve ‘localhost’
  • couldn’t create TCP/IP socket

I’ve get it fixed.

THE TIP:
Check: mode permissions on /etc/hosts is ‘-rw——-
Fix: ‘chmod -c go+r
Replace: “listen_addresses = ‘localhost‘” to “listen_addresses = ‘127.0.0.1‘”

May this help someone out there.
