I have this problem on jaunty. Postgres would not start when the server starts, but it will start when I do it manually. We have vmware server installed. I tried preventing vmware server from auto starting and also tried the S19 -> S20 workaround, but neither worked. We then followed this advice:

and the problem seems to be resolved.
