My postmaster.pid is something like:
23479
/export/home1/staff/marini/pgsql/data
5432001 11703
I don't know if there is something wrong with my installation (I run
postgresql on Ultra-2 station with Solaris 6), for sure I cannot stop
postgrsql server using:
kill `cat /usr/local/pgsql/data/postmaster.pid`
as described in INSTALL file.
The right stop command should be:
kill `cat /usr/local/pgsql/data/postmaster.pid|head -1`
Best regards
Dario Marini
