Re: /var/run/postgresql/.s.PGSQL.5432 should be 5433

1) You should have a script in /etc/init.d called something like postgresql-VERSION

2) Rename this to postgresql-SomeIdentifierThatRunsOn5432

3) Copy it to postgresql-SomeIdentifiedThatRunsOn5433

4) You now have 2 identical scripts in /etc/init.d

5) In /etc/sysconfig/pgsql create 2 scripts named the same thing. The exact same names as your scripts in /etc/init.d

6) They will say something like this:

PGDATA=/pgdata/myDirTo5432
PGPORT=5432
PGLOG=/var/lib/pgsql/pgstartup.${PGPORT}.log

PGDATA=/pgdata/myDirTo5433
PGPORT=5433
PGLOG=/var/lib/pgsql/pgstartup.${PGPORT}.log

Then do your service SCRIPTNAME initdb and service SCRIPTNAME start

Works for me.

Hi !

I have need to have to difference Postgres version runnung on the same RHEL 7.2 server.

They are listening on 2 different ports as configured but socket is still listening
on port 5432 for both of them.

How come and how do I change this?

TIA
