Обсуждение: postgres error message upon boot

FreeBSD-6.2
(PostgreSQL) 8.2.3

Occasionally, when booting up, I receive this error message:

<quote>

Mar 25 08:28:24 scorpio postgres[756]: [1-1] FATAL:  the database
system is starting up

<end quote>

Since it only happens occasionally, I have not been able to figure out
what is causing it. It will usually, although not always, not happen
when I next boot the system.

Any ideas on how to correct this problem would be welcomed.

It's not actually a problem, it just means that some client is
connecting to the database while it's starting up. That clients
connection will fail with the above error message. As soon as the
database startup is complete, they will be able to connect again.
