     @frogmaiden Check permissions again, chown -R if needed. Also don't run it as root if you do, do sudo -u _postgresql instead.

     @frogmaiden Hm. Are the paths correct? Your command shows /var/postgresql while the data is usually located in /var/lib/postgresql.

     @mint Already ran chown -R for it and _postgresql owns the directory. Also am running it under _postgresql with su _postgresql -
     
     For context this is on OpenBSD

     @frogmaiden Never used MemeBSD, so not sure what could be an issue. The instructions are rather old, judging by the date of 2017 in config examples.

     @frogmaiden Might be possible it doesn't like being symlinked. Try creating it in the target directory, and then change the path to it in postgres config.

     @mint Ah I should mention this directory is a symlink to a directory on my SSD but the owner's _postgresql on both symlink and the corresponding folder
