Postgres error after update
Raw
postgres_error.md

After updating postgres brew formula or OS X, afterwards there could be an error similar to:

psql: could not connect to server: No such file or directory
        Is the server running locally and accepting
        connections on Unix domain socket "/tmp/.s.PGSQL.5432"?

One possible fix is:

rm /usr/local/var/postgres/postmaster.pid
brew services restart postgresql
