Hi, i recently migrated from mysql to postgres and i might have made a no-no in that process. bascily i want/need a selfcontained folder \database where i can zip that directory move it anywhere, unzip and carry on my busniess with no dependencies. Postgres presented me with a challenge in this regard as i am not allowed to run it from a admin account (yes i know i know, still..), alas i followed the steps here http://charupload.wordpress.com/2008/07/26/manual-installation-of-postgresql-under-administrator-user-in-windows/ initdb -D c:\postgresql\data pg_ctl.exe start -D c:\postgresql\data Fantastic, i was up and running, migrated my data and continued developent .. the server have stopped on occasion on its own for some reason i cannot pinpoint, but now it is totally unable to start up, here is the recent entries from the server log. LOG: could not open directory "G:/mysql/pgsql/share/timezone": No such file or directory LOG: could not open directory "G:/mysql/pgsql/share/timezone": No such file or directory FATAL: could not select a suitable default timezone DETAIL: It appears that your GMT time zone uses leap seconds. PostgreSQL does not support leap seconds.

PostgreSQL does not support leap seconds. Dont put anything onto the g:/mysql directory, inhere mysql and postgres lives side by side... I understand the error, the directory is NOT there ... but this thing was running happily a few days ago .. what went wrong ??? -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
