Hi,

I did 'sudo apt-get install postgresql' on an ubuntu 9.04 node and it installed successfully. However, postgresql does not start up during server startup!

Running '/etc/init.d/posgtresql-8.3 status' returns immediately and does not output anything to the console.

I then created a 'data' dir and ran 'initdb' on that and from the command line was able to get postgresql running. But how to start it up by default when the server reboots! Am wary of messing with the postgresql start up script in /etc/init.d.

thanks,
mano
