Find file

[buters]

Thank you Mumia very much,

>Why do you need to find the files containing your database?

pg_ctl restart [-w] [-D DATADIR] [-s] [-m SHUTDOWN-MODE] [-o "OPTIONS"]
This is a restart usage for pg_ctl, if a db should be restarted.

If I try:
**************************************
$ pg_ctl restart
**************************************

I get:
**************************************
pg_ctl: no database directory specified and environment variable PGDATA
unset
**************************************

There is in /var/lib/postgresql/ only a data directory, so-called data area
(a collection of dbs), under which all data are stored. But I want to know,
how I can only restart my db. Also I need a db directory.

Best Regards, buters.
