Hi Everyone,
	I have a problem restarting the postmaster . It's giving the error
postmaster: could not find backend to execute ....
        I tried restarting initdb after giving the command cleardbdir.
But still it didn't work. Even in initdb it gave an error 
	FindBackend: could not find a backend to execute...
I'm giving all these commands from userid postgres.
There are no other postmasters running...
Can you please tell me how to restart postmaster ?
I also tried the command ipcclean
and postmaster -n
but nothing worked.
				Thanks in Advance,
Naveen Williams
