Hi,

My fullinstall of Nagios XI has failed due to postgresql not stopping (no idea why). I am installing on Centos 5.x 32-bit, and it was a clean install of Centos.

Below is the output from the install process;

Code: Select all

Starting PostgresQL...
Initializing database:                                     [  OK  ]
Starting postgresql service:                               [  OK  ]
Copying PostgresQL trust-based authentication configuration...
Restarting PostgresQL...
Stopping postgresql service:                               [FAILED]
Starting postgresql service:                               [  OK  ]
ERROR: Could not restart PostgresQL - exiting.
RESULT=1

===================
INSTALLATION ERROR!
===================
Installation step failed - exiting.
Check for error messages in the install log (install.log).
The script that failed was: './3-dbservers'
[root@Nagios nagiosxi]# 
I cannot find any information on how to recover from this, apart from re-installing Centos and starting all over again.

Hopefully someone will have some idea how to assist, thanks in advance.

Issue resolved, just rebuilt VPS from scratch and re-ran the installation.
