I had an error start postgre local server like PostgreSQL stale ‘postmaster.pid’ error

  • To fix this error should just remove postmaster.pid file. This issue happens when the PostgreSQL process dies without cleaning up its pid file.

Delete postmaster.pid

  • cd Library/Application\ Support/Postgres/var-13/
  • rm postmaster.pid
