Hello,

I have the same pb. I have looked for a postmaster.conf file but there
is none on the server.
Apart from the doc and src files, the only files on my server
containing the word "postmaster" are :
/usr/local/pgsql/bin/postmaster
$PGDATA/postmaster.opts
$PGDATA/postmaster.pid

Do you have an idea why and how then to solve this pb ?

Thanks,

Yann.
