[Pgpool-general] pgpool Pid Error

[Ger Apeldoorn]

Hi Rahul,

It sounds like that pgpool is already running. Otherwise another process 
is using the port.

Try ps -ef | grep pgpool to see if pgpool is running in the background.

Stop it (/etc/init.d/pgpool stop)
then try to start it again with pgpool -n -d

Greetings
