出现这个问题有以下几种可能：
1.gpmaster/目录下磁盘已满，没有启动所用的空间；
  解决：删除不用的数据。留有足够的空间
2.数据库升过级后，忘了改环境变量或是环境变量设置的有问题
  解决：环境变量修改正确即可，实例如下：
[gpadmin@mdw ~]$ more .bash_profile
# .bash_profile

# Get the aliases and functions
if [ -f ~/.bashrc ]; then
        . ~/.bashrc
fi

# User specific environment and startup programs

PATH=$PATH:$HOME/bin
export PATH

 

[gpadmin@mdw ~]$ more .bashrc
# .bashrc

# Source global definitions
if [ -f /etc/bashrc ]; then
        . /etc/bashrc
fi

# User specific aliases and functions
source /usr/local/greenplum-db/greenplum_path.sh
export MASTER_DATA_DIRECTORY=/data/master/gpseg-1
source /usr/local/greenplum-cc-web-1.2.0.1-build-2/gpcc_path.sh
