Question regarding postgresql

Hi,

I tried to install postgresql and opennms on a Fedora 15 machine. I've 
followed the steps according to the following website:

http://opennms.org/wiki/QuickStart
http://opennms.org/wiki/Installation:Yum

However, after installing everything, I cannot connect to PostgreSQL 
server as the "postgres" user. I tried with all these 3 commands as 
postgres user:

    /etc/init.d/postgresql start
    /sbin/service postgresql start
*su postgres -c 'service postgresql start'*

and it all returns the following:

"Starting postgresql (via systemctl): Failed to issue method call: 
Access denied. "

I have already changed the ownership of /var/lib/Postgres/data to user 
"postgres", and I also modified the pg_hba.conf and postgresql.conf file 
accordingly.

However, I can start the PostgreSQL server under root account. I'm not 
sure where the problem is? Could anybody give me a hand? Thanks a lot.

Cheers,

Tony
