I have a Ubuntu 14.04 system, continuously running some automation work for me for a year already. The Postgresql 9.3 on board stop running since last week: it fails when starting and error message suggest me to check the log. However, there is nothing in the log.
Output for checking the status using sudo service postgresql status
:
9.3/main (port 5432): down
Output for restarting PostgreSQL using sudo service postgresql restart
:
* Starting PostgreSQL 9.3 database server
* The PostgreSQL server failed to start. Please check the log output.
[fail]
I have not updated anything or change any setting recently on that machine.
Any explanation or solution on this?
sudo systemctl status postgresql
sudo service postgresql status
postgresql.conf
config file. is not your /var folder filled up?
