Re: Postgres won't start

To start with, it worked but the pg_hba.conf entry appeared to be wrong. I
tried changing that and then the current problem started. I tried
"listen_addresses = '*'"; then back to just 'localhost'.

Since I have maximum logging enabled, I don't think it is getting as far as
reading the configuration files - that is not mentioned in the log.

There is no other instance of postgres running.
