Ensure that the user 'postgres' has permissions to get to
this dir from / up. This may either mean changing permissions
on some directories or changing ownership.

More than likely / /var /lib are a permissions thing (likely
need to be u+rwx,g+rx,o+rx) and /var/lib/pgsql/ and up is an
ownership thing (postgres:postgres) but this is not guaranteed
so take care.
