Hi guys, Thanks for taking time to reply. - Despite what the error message says, the user postgres doesn't have administrator privileges (and I don't see why these would change by retyping the password). - In Control Panel -> Administrative Tools -> Computer Manager -> Users -> postgres I see that postgres is member of the 'Users' group and its password never expires. Maybe I'm missing something obvious here...
