Well, the /tmp files are for non-TCP (Unix socket) communication, so
they're not relevant to this failure. The postmaster is complaining
because it can't get ownership of the 5432 TCP port number. I'm betting
that you have another postmaster process still hanging around, or else
(much less likely, but possible) some unrelated program that happens to
have grabbed onto the 5432 TCP port number.
Try using 'netstat' to see if 5432 is in use...
