Try adding an & sign to the end to put the process in the background. I
believe it is running until you interrupt it.

I am trying to use PostgreSQL 7.1 which came with the SuSe 7.3
distribution that I have.
I am using documentation postgre.org.
postmaster -D /var/lib/pgsql/data should start the
postmaster.
I get several DEBUG messages with the last message stating " database
system is in production state".
The system does not complete the task. It stays on this last message. I
have interupt to get back to the postgres prompt.
Can anyone tell me what I am missing. Why is it doing this?
