Re: Unrecognized service

Hi all,

woohoo!

service postgresql-9.2 status

(pid 9924) is running...

It seems that I was looking for the service by the wrong name, as John
guessed correcty. Also, Tom, it's good to know that the data won't
necessarily go away if I need to reinstall at some point.

thank you so much for the messages from all three of you. Your rapid
responses were very encouraging.
