/etc/init.d/postgresql-9.0 status ; echo $? * Reloading PostgreSQL configuration ... pg_ctl: no server running [ !! ] 1 Error code should be 3 not 1. This prevents heartbeat to start up postgresql service. Btw, why init scripts throws "Reloading PostgreSQL configuration" here? Status shouldn't change anything, this isn't reload.

The "Reloading PostgreSQL configuration" is a copy/paste error. As for the exit code: postgres@atrus ~ $ pg_ctl status -D /var/lib/postgresql/9.0/data/ ; echo $? pg_ctl: no server running 1 postgres@atrus ~ $ pg_ctl status -D /var/lib/postgresql/9.0/data/ ; echo $? pg_ctl: server is running (PID: 26256) /usr/lib/postgresql-9.0/bin/postgres "-D" "/var/lib/postgresql/9.0/data" "-D" "/etc/postgresql-9.0/" "--data-directory=/var/lib/postgresql/9.0/data" "--silent-mode=true" 0 postgres@atrus ~ $ pg_ctl status ; echo $? pg_ctl: no database directory specified and environment variable PGDATA unset Try "pg_ctl --help" for more information. 1 titan@atrus ~ $ pg_ctl status -D /var/lib/postgresql/9.0/data/ ; echo $? pg_ctl: could not open PID file "/var/lib/postgresql/9.0/data/postmaster.pid": Permission denied 1 Don't know what to tell ya.
According to http://refspecs.freestandards.org/LSB_3.1.1/LSB-Core-generic/LSB-Core-generic/iniscrptact.html exit code 1 (from init script) is incorrect. Imho, exit code from pg_ctl should be changed from 1 to 3.
Aaron, i saw you've added patch to postgresql-9.1, have you got plans to do it for other versions?
02 Aug 2011; Aaron W. Swenson <titanofold@gentoo.org> +postgresql-server-8.2.21-r2.ebuild, +postgresql-server-8.3.15-r2.ebuild, +postgresql-server-8.4.8-r2.ebuild, +postgresql-server-9.0.4-r2.ebuild, +postgresql-server-9.1_beta3-r1.ebuild: Fixes bug 368177 and hopefully bug 341729
Thanks!
