I had a previous install that started throwing this error a few months ago.

netedit/postgresql service has failed

I never could find a solution, so I did a fresh install about two months ago.  Can't remember if I did an update or not, but today, I got that same error again.  Even in the documentation, it says that it's fine to update the OS.  Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong or how to fix this?  Not a Linux guru.  I can get around in Linux, but when it comes to know default directories and command-line, no.

Good thought, but it's showing 7% in use right now.  We're a pretty small school district.  We have about 20 switches in there now, so assume that should be enough.  We did use the OVA, so I went with the base requirements which was 115GB.  Our current disk is showing 37GB in VMWare.

Did you check if the Hypervisor has enough space to expand disk in the case that you select thin provisioning? I sometimes see similar errors when hypervisor datastore run out of space.

If you have originally thin provisioned disk, then try with tick provisioning.

I will look at thick provision.  We have 24 TB free, so it's definitely got enough space on host.

Indeed, as you confirm, you have plenty of space. As I said at the beginning of the thread, it wasn't always because of that problem. In the logs section you get some additional data besides netedit/postgresql service has failed. In the VMware logs, is there anything related to machine resources? You probably have to access the console with root to see why postgresql is failing. Do you have an open case with TAC?
