Comment (by Klogic1):
dgilman, to answer your question about postgres user's home directory.
I have the same postgres home directory as you:
{{{ NFSHomeDirectory:
/opt/local/var/db/postgresql15}}}
I am using a MacBook Pro with macOS Monterey to test MacPorts and
PostgreSQL before I install them on an iMac.
Prior to installing MacPorts and PostgreSQL I erased the SSD and
reinstalled macOS Monterey. So, Apple's Migration Assistant was not used.
Now to the postgresql15: Initialize database cluster fails problem.
I have been able to resolve the problem.
Apparently copying and pasting the below command at the terminal prompt
was causing a problem for some reason.
{{{sudo su postgres -c '/opt/local/lib/postgresql15/bin/initdb -D
/opt/local/var/db/postgresql15/defaultdb’}}}
When I typed the command at the terminal prompt it executed as expected
and created a database cluster.
The PostgreSQL server is now running.
Please close the ticket since the problem is resolved.
Thanks for your assistance with this problem and providing the PostgreSQL
15 updates.
