Environment
Situation
Using SuSE Linux Enterpris Server 11 with support pack 1 (SLES11SP1), if the postgres users password has expired, on reboot, the server will stop at 'start rcpostgresql'. As such, the server will not fully boot.
Resolution
auth sufficient pam_rootok.so
auth include common-auth
account sufficient pam_rootok.so
account include common-account
password include common-password
session include common-session
session optional pam_xauth.so
At this point, the fix may be verified by rebooting the server.
NOTE: This has been identified by the developers, and have confirmed that in the beta release of SLES11 support pack 2 this issue no longer exists.
