Re: Starting postgres server on mac os x 10.6.8

Hi Scott,

This is my first time trying to solve a postgres issue, I just now realized that the command I tried before wasn't to open the logfile but to do something else. I couldn't find the command in the postgres docs to open and see the contents of the logfile, can you tell me what it is?

What do you mean "see the logfile"??? You're telling it to write into a file named logfile, in the current directory. Obviously, the user that postgres is being run under does not have permission to do that.
