Being a novice, first timer, i'm not sure what the "-i" switch is, or what the command looks like. Please post. Thanks!

On my Sco-Openserver Unix machine, I need to start the postmaster like this

nohup pg_ctl -o -i start &

Also keep in mind that I have my environment variables setup eg.

PGDATA=/usr/local/pgsql/data
PGDATABASE=thenameofthedb
PGHOST=thenameofthemachine
PGUSER=postgres

Hope that helps
