如何在Mac OS X上启动PostgreSQL服务器？

最终更新：

我忘了运行initdb命令。

</ FINAL UPDATE>

通过运行此命令

ps auxwww | grep postgres

我看到postgres没有运行

> ps auxwww | grep postgres
remcat          1789   0.0  0.0  2434892    480 s000  R+   11:28PM   0:00.00 grep postgres

这引出了一个问题：如何启动postgresql服务器？

更新：

>pg_ctl -D /usr/local/var/postgres -l /usr/local/var/postgres/server.log start
server starting
sh: /usr/local/var/postgres/server.log: No such file or directory

更新2：

触摸不成功所以我这样做了：

> mkdir /usr/local/var/postgres
> vi /usr/local/var/postgres/server.log
> ls /usr/local/var/postgres/          
server.log

但是当我尝试启动rails服务器时，我仍然看到：

Is the server running on host "localhost" and accepting
TCP/IP connections on port 5432?

更新3：

> pg_ctl -D /usr/local/var/postgres status
pg_ctl: no server running

更新4：

我发现没有pg_hba.conf（只有pg_hba.conf.sample）所以我修改了样本并将其重命名（以移除.sample）。 以下是内容：

 # IPv4 local connections:
 host    all             all             127.0.0.1/32           trust
 # IPv6 local connections:
 host    all             all             ::1/128                trust

但我不明白这个：

> pg_ctl -D /usr/local/var/postgres -l /usr/local/var/postgres/server.log start     
server starting
> pg_ctl -D /usr/local/var/postgres status                                     
pg_ctl: no server running

也：

sudo find / -name postgresql.conf
find: /dev/fd/3: Not a directory
find: /dev/fd/4: Not a directory

更新5：

sudo pg_ctl -D /usr/local/var/postgres -l /usr/local/var/postgres/server.log start
Password:
pg_ctl: cannot be run as root
Please log in (using, e.g., "su") as the (unprivileged) user that will own the server process.

更新6：

这看起来很奇怪：

> egrep 'listen|port' /usr/local/var/postgres/postgresql.conf
egrep: /usr/local/var/postgres/postgresql.conf: No such file or directory

不过，我这样做了：

>sudo find / -name "*postgresql.conf*"
find: /dev/fd/3: Not a directory
find: /dev/fd/4: Not a directory
/usr/local/Cellar/postgresql/9.0.4/share/postgresql/postgresql.conf.sample
/usr/share/postgresql/postgresql.conf.sample

所以我这样做了：

egrep 'listen|port' /usr/local/Cellar/postgresql/9.0.4/share/postgresql/postgresql.conf.sample 
#listen_addresses = 'localhost'     # what IP address(es) to listen on;
#port = 5432                # (change requires restart)
                # supported by the operating system:
                #   %r = remote host and port
