Hi all.
I have installed Freebsd 6.1 with PostgreSql Server 8.1. I can run
server when I first log, as root user, and after that I log as pgsql
(deamon user for postgres).
Then I execute postmaster -D /usr/local/pgsql/data and server start. But
I must do that for every restart.
How can I start PostgreSql as a service and what must I done that
PostgreSql start automatically after server reboot?
I had edited /etc/rc.conf -
postgresql_enable="YES"
postgresql_data="/usr/local/pgsql/data/"
I find that I have script called postgres in
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/
when I executed after reboot server (PostgreSql is not running)
$ /usr/local/etc/rc.d/postgresql start - I get
The program "postmaster" was found by "/usr/local/bin/pg_ctl"
but was not the same version as pg_ctl.
Check your installation.
What I have to do?

I'm assuming you've installed these packages via FreeBSD ports. In that
case, your version of postgresql-client (which supplies pg_ctl) is not
the same as the version of postgresql-server (which supplies
postmaster). Upgrade one of both (and its dependancies) to make them
match.
