X-Git-Tag: REL_12_13~23 X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=75517026f33148b1ae783941f5e6d2239f512b47;p=thirdparty%2Fpostgresql.git Doc: improve recommended systemd unit file. Add After=network-online.target Wants=network-online.target to the suggested unit file for starting a Postgres server. This delays startup until the network interfaces have been configured; without that, any attempt to bind to a specific IP address will fail. If listen_addresses is set to "localhost" or "*", it might be possible to get away with the less restrictive "network.target", but I don't think we need to get into such detail here. Per suggestion from Pablo Federico.
