I am trying to execute PostgreSQL unsuccessfully on Ubuntu
# /etc/init.d/postgresql start

Examine the log output.
[fail]
There is no much information to tell me what is wrong. How can investigate this issue?
I have a docker instance and I have changed the file =:
"/var/lib/postgreqsql/data/pg_hba.conf"
And it now has errors.
It appears that this is preventing me actually connecting to the docker instance.

When I try and connect I get a consistent message as follows:

Stopping and starting as follows:
docker-compose stop postgres
docker-compose start postgres
Has no impact the issue remains.
What I need to do is be able to connect again to the instance and edit the file pg_hba.conf again to correct the fault but I am not sure how I can. (I am a docker newb.)

Docker composer file

Using ubuntu 20.4
Something, probably a monitoring system, is establishing TCP connections to the database server, then closing them without sending a correct PostgreSQL connection packet.
You can include %h in your log_line_prefix to see the client address of these connections, which may help identify the culprit.
The solution is to get the monitoring system to establish a database connection rather than only a TCP connection. Not only will that get rid of the message, but it will make the test much more useful.
Problem
Following the postgres docker official page:
https://hub.docker.com/_/postgres
I've created "stack.yml"
and it's contain:
# Use postgres/example user/password credentials
version: '3.1'
services:
db:
image: postgres
restart: always
environment:
POSTGRES_PASSWORD: example
adminer:
image: adminer
restart: always
ports:
- 8080:8080
And then running command:
$ docker stack deploy -c stack.yml postgres
But after it is finished, I cannot open http://localhost:8080
it keep "Waiting for ..."
I followed everything from the docs, and keep retrying but keep failing, any help would be very appreciated?
update:
using docker-compose is working, but I'm still curious why running with docker stack ... won't work

Thanks in advance!
Ok, so I solved my issue. This issue helped me.
It seems like Postgres initialization process does stop the initialization process once done, and it is another process which follows up and accepts connexion.
Hence I had:
postgres:
deploy:
restart_policy:
condition: on-failure
window: 15m
and apparently docker received a end-of-process status code, so it stopped without going to the next process so never accepting connexions.
My interpretation may be incorrect, but at least if you face the issue, try removing restart_policy key to see if it fixes it.
I haven't tried to restore healthcheck yet, as it may also have undesired side effects.
