Today I noticed that the log was filling up with:
[2005-12-03 06:29:47 UTC] LOG: could not load root certificate file
+"/var/lib/postgresql/8.0/main/root.crt": No SSL error reported
[2005-12-03 06:29:47 UTC] DETAIL: Will not verify client certificates.
[2005-12-03 06:29:47 UTC] FATAL: lock file
+"/var/lib/postgresql/8.0/main/postmaster.pid" already exists
[2005-12-03 06:29:47 UTC] HINT: Is another postmaster (PID 288) running
in data
+directory "/var/lib/postgresql/8.0/main"?
I got 1 per second! A few megabytes later, I killed everything and
restart. Looks OK now, but how to avoid this in the future?
Do I need a ./finish script which does:
kill `cat /var/lib/postgresql/8.0/main/postmaster.pid`
??
Suggestions please. ;-)

OK, I think I know what happened. I sent a TERM signal to the
postmaster. On a TERM signal, the postmaster waits for all client
connections to shutdown before exiting. Because I was confused, I think
I killed the runsv process watching the postmaster. runsvdir probably
started a new runsv which repeatedly tried to start a new postmaster.
So I guess it was my fault.
