postgresql please respond

Postgres doesnt start.

/usr/local/pgsql/bin/postmaster -D /usr/local/pgsql/data >logfile 2>&1 & 

<--start postgres service (doesn't work)

keeps saying that there is another process going. Tried killing it but it doesn't exist.

Tried other commands, then found out the solution was simple. Just DELETE the postmaster.pid found inside [data] and start it again
