Hi,

 

I am not an expert in PG, still i can help u to some extend as i have successfully deployed pg8.1.1 using both installer and no installer on Win XP,2K,2003.

 

To solve your issue

1. cretae a user on your local system.

2. Use runas to run pg_ctl using the user created

Eg batch file:

@echo off

chdir c:\WINDOWS\system32
runas /user:SYSNAME\postgres "<path>\pgsql\bin\pg_ctl.exe start -D ""<path>\pgsql\data" -l ""<path>\pgsql\pg_log.txt"" | "<path>\sanur pwd
pause

 

In the above eg sanur is a utility used myself for piping the pwd into runas as it will ask externally. You can download it from http://www.commandline.co.uk/sanur_unsupported/index.html

 

Also go through the Following FAQ link f or ur further queries

http://pginstaller.projects.postgresql.org/faq/FAQ_windows.html#1.1

 

Also u have to copy libpq.dll either in %system32% or in PG bin folder.
