Cannot start PGSQL

I'm a novice & I'm trying to start posgtres by doing /etc/init.d/postgresql start.
 
It starts.
But the next min if i try to check the process by doing ps -auwx | grep post, I dont see any process.
 
My installation is in /var/lib/pgsql/data.
 
There is nothing in serverlog.
 
What can be the reason?
 
How do i enable logging to serverlog
 
Tnx & regards,
Sachin

Check /var/lib/pgsql/pgstartup.log , if it exists.

FATAL:  database files are incompatible with server
DETAIL:  The database cluster was initialized with PG_CONTROL_VERSION 71, but the server was compiled with PG_CONTROL_VERSION 812.
HINT:  It looks like you need to initdb.

You have an old (7.1) version installed on that directory. If you took
backups, you need to remove /var/lib/pgsql/data directory, recreate it
with postgres user, and initdb that directory before you can start
PostgreSQL.

Probably:

service postgresql initdb
service postgresql start

will do the work for you.
