Hi folks.

My Bacula system has stopped working because it cannot access the Postgresql
server.

I have tried restarting the server using

systemctl restart postgresql

and

pg_ctl start (from postgres user)

I get nothing appearing on-screen using either method but the server is still
unaccessible.

Doing a 'ps ax' found the following output. Can anyone help on what I need to
do next as Google only returns posts relating to replication which I don't
use.

-bash-4.2$ ps ax|grep post
29370 pts/0 S 0:00 su - postgres
29446 pts/0 S 0:00 /usr/bin/postgres
29447 ? Ss 0:00 postgres: logger process
29448 ? Ds 0:07 postgres: startup process recovering
000000010000000C000000FD
29653 ? Ss 0:00
gvim /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/postgresql.service
29746 pts/0 S+ 0:00 grep --color=auto post
-bash-4.2$

I'm using:

[root(at)lou clients]# uname -a
Linux lou.ringways.co.uk 3.6.10-2.fc17.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Dec 11 18:07:34 UTC

[root(at)lou clients]# rpm -qa|grep postgr
