Dear list,

I have a problem starting PG 8.0 on a OSX machine, getting this
FATAL: could not open lock file "/tmp/.s.PGSQL.5432.lock": Permission
denied

I checked the privs on /tmp
ls -ld /tmp
lrwxr-xr-x 1 root admin 11 4 Oct 2003 /tmp -> private/tmp

ls -ld /private/tmp
drwxrwxrwt 21 root wheel 714 4 Feb 00:09 /private/tmp

and of course, PG 8.0 starts on another machine, with the same OS
version 10.3.7, PG version 8.0, configuration.
Nothing found in system, console logs.

Did someone already experienced this ?
Many thanks for some ideas, I can't see what's wrong... (ok, its
late...)

Philippe
