我运行的是Mavericks OS X 10.9,所以我不知道这是否是问题所在。我已经尽力了,但似乎都没用。我已经卸载和安装postgres和pg gem多次了。

当前回答

它可能只是一个陈旧的PID文件。它可能会无声地失败,因为你的计算机没有完全完成关机过程,这意味着postgres没有删除PID(进程id)文件。

PID文件被postgres用来确保在同一时间只有一个服务器实例在运行。所以当它再次启动时,它会失败,因为已经有一个PID文件告诉postgres服务器的另一个实例已经启动(即使它没有运行,它只是没有关闭和删除PID)。

要修复它,请删除/重命名PID文件。找到postgres数据目录。在macOS上使用homebrew,它在/usr/local/var/postgres/, 或者/usr/local/var/log/其他系统可能是/usr/var/postgres/。在M1上,它可能是/opt/homebrew/var/postgresql。 要确定这是问题所在,请查看日志文件(server.log)。在最后一行你会看到:

致命:锁定文件"postmaster. "Pid "已经存在 提示:在数据目录“/usr/local/var/postgres”中是否运行另一个postmaster (PID 347) ?

如果是,rm postmaster.pid 重新启动服务器。在使用launchctl(带homebrew)的mac上,以下命令将重新启动服务器。 Brew服务重启postgresql

或者在旧版本的Brew上

    launchctl unload homebrew.mxcl.postgresql.plist  
    launchctl load -w homebrew.mxcl.postgresql.plist

其他回答

我已经设法通过Chris Slade的回答来解决这个问题,但要重新启动服务器,我必须使用以下命令:

launchctl unload ~/Library/LaunchAgents/homebrew.mxcl.postgresql.plist

launchctl load ~/Library/LaunchAgents/homebrew.mxcl.postgresql.plist

我在这里找到的答案(pjammer的答案在底部)

克里斯·斯莱德的回答帮助了我。

我写了一个小脚本来杀死那些剩余的进程,如果有用的话:

kill_postgres() {
  if [[ $* -eq "" ]]; then
    echo "Usage: 'kill_postgres <db_name>' to kill remaining instances (Eg. 'kill_postgres my_app_development')"
  else
    gksudo echo "Granted sudo"
    pids="$(ps xa | grep postgres | grep $* | awk '{print $1}' | xargs)"
    if [[ $pids -eq "" ]]; then
      echo "Nothing to kill"
    else
      for pid in "${pids[@]}"
      do
        echo "Killing ${pid}"
        sudo kill $pid
        echo "Killed ${pid}"
      done
      kill_postgres $*
    fi
  fi
}

我也有同样的问题,这个解释帮我解决了:http://blog.55minutes.com/2013/09/postgresql-93-brew-upgrade/

关键步骤是查看/usr/local/var/ postgress /server.log的尾部, 这让我看到了真正的问题是什么,那就是我还没有完全完成升级PostgreSQL的过程

这才是真正帮助我的。

$ cd /usr/local/var/postgres/
$ rm postmaster.pid

参考: http://alumni.lewagon.org/questions/60

正如@Magne所描述的,PostgreSQL的主要/次要版本升级(例如9.5 -> 9.6或9 -> 10)后,会出现PG::ConnectionBad - could not connect to server: Connection refused错误。

在postgresql 9.6版本发布后运行brew upgrade postgresql后,我得到了这个错误。问题是主要/次要版本升级需要额外的步骤来将旧日期迁移到新版本。

如何检查这是否是你的问题

你可以检查这是否是问题通过检查最新的酿造公式PostgreSQL版本安装与自制…

$ brew info postgresql

/usr/local/Cellar/postgresql/9.5.4_1 (3,147 files, 35M)
Poured from bottle on 2016-10-14 at 13:33:28
/usr/local/Cellar/postgresql/9.6.1 (3,242 files, 36.4M) *
Poured from bottle on 2017-02-06 at 12:41:00

...然后将其与当前PG_VERSION进行比较

$ cat /usr/local/var/postgres/PG_VERSION
9.5

如果PG_VERSION小于最新的酿造公式,并且差异是主要/次要版本更改,那么这可能是您的问题。

如何修复(即如何升级数据)

下面的说明是从9.5升级到9.6。根据您自己的升级更改版本号

步骤1。确保PostgreSQL关闭:

$ launchctl unload ~/Library/LaunchAgents/homebrew.mxcl.postgresql.plist
# or, with Homebrew...
$ brew services stop postgresql

步骤2。创建一个新的原始数据库:

$ initdb /usr/local/var/postgres9.6 -E utf8

步骤3。检查新旧二进制版本是什么:

$ ls /usr/local/Cellar/postgresql/
9.5.3   9.5.4   9.6.1

注意,在这个例子中,我从9.5.4二进制升级到9.6.1二进制

步骤4。使用pg_upgrade实用程序将当前数据迁移到新数据库。

$ pg_upgrade \
  -d /usr/local/var/postgres \
  -D /usr/local/var/postgres9.6 \
  -b /usr/local/Cellar/postgresql/9.5.4/bin/ \
  -B /usr/local/Cellar/postgresql/9.6.1/bin/ \
  -v

-d flag指定当前数据目录 -D flag指定要创建的新数据目录 -b指定旧的二进制文件 -B指定要升级到的新二进制文件

第5步。将旧的数据目录移开

$ mv /usr/local/var/postgres /usr/local/var/postgres9.5

步骤6。将新创建的数据目录移动到PostgreSQL期望的位置

$ mv /usr/local/var/postgres9.6 /usr/local/var/postgres

步骤7。重新启动PostgreSQL

$ launchctl load ~/Library/LaunchAgents/homebrew.mxcl.postgresql.plist
# or, if you're running a current version of Homebrew
$ brew services start postgresql

步骤8。如果您正在为Rails使用pg gem,您应该通过卸载和重新安装gem来重新编译(如果您不使用pg gem,请跳过此步骤)。

$ gem uninstall pg
$ gem install pg

步骤9.(可选)在你确信一切正常后,你可以运行以下命令重新获得一些磁盘空间:

brew cleanup postgresql

...如果你真的有勇气,你可以用下面的命令删除旧的PostgreSQL数据目录

rm -rf /usr/local/var/postgres9.5/
