我正在尝试安装和运行postgresql服务器，每当我安装它
sudo apt-get install postgresql
我收到以下错误：
* Starting Postgresql 9.1 database server * The Postgresql server Failed to start. Please check the log output: 2014-04-03 17:18:16 PDT FATAL: could not create lock file "/var/run/postgresql/.s.PGsql.5432.lock": Permission denied [fail] invoke-rc.d: initscript postgresql,action "start" Failed. dpkg: error processing postgresql-common (--configure): subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1 dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of postgresql-9.1: postgresql-9.1 depends on postgresql-common (>= 115~); however: Package postgresql-common is not configured yet. dpkg: error processing postgresql-9.1 (--configure): dependency problems - leaving unconfigured dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of postgresql: postgresql depends on postgresql-9.1; however: Package postgresql-9.1 is not configured yet. dpkg: error processing postgresql (--configure): dependency problems - leaving unconfigured No apport report written because the error message indicates its a followup error from a prevIoUs failure.

我猜这是一个权限问题;我该怎么解决呢？
我正在运行Ubuntu 13.10
检查/ var / run / postgresql的所有者，并将其设置为postgres(如果还没有)
要这样做，键入
要这样做，键入
sudo chown -R postgres：postgres / var / run / postgresql
如果您运行的用户没有sudo权限，那么
1)切换到根
苏 –
2)将/ var / run / postgresql的所有权更改为postgres用户和postgres组
chown -R postgres：postgres / var / run / postgresql
在Ubuntu 14.04上安装postgres时，我也遇到了同样的问题，并改变了我的问题。
