Dear Adrian,
Thanks for helping me. Sorry for the lack of details, I had said to
myself I had to not forget to give these details but I hit the send
button too fast. You know how it is...
I added more info in your reply below.
First some questions:
1) What Postgres version?
9.3
Windows 7
3) Where were you backing up from and to?
Backing up from my only cluster (PGDATA) on disk E, to a backup
directory on an other disk (F:) using this command:
pg_basebackup -D "F:\\db_base_backup" -Fp -Xs -R -P
--label="basebackup20150205" --username=postgres
What's weird is that I did some successful tests last week on the same
system (backing up, archiving, recovering) using the same procedure.
Only difference was the cluster, which was much smaller for testing
purposes, but located at the same place (i.e. E:\data) and PostgresSQL
installed in C:\Programs\...
4) Which cluster does not start, the master or the child you created
with pg_basebackup?
The master. I haven't tried the child yet. But I saw that the message
about role "208375PT$" is in logs from before the backup too.
This is the local domain of my machine. I log onto my machine with a
local admin account and using domain name 208375PT (I didn't set this
part of my machine, the IT guys here at work did). The thing is: I don't
understand why it's there in the log file??
Not sure.
What are you using for an authentication method for database login?
And after that, I went back to the log file and there's new
information
added:

Well according to here:
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-__us/library/cc704588.aspx
<https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc704588.aspx>
0x80000004
STATUS_SINGLE_STEP
{EXCEPTION} Single Step A single step or trace operation has just
been completed.
A developer is going to have explain what that means.
My suspicion is you copied at least partly over a running server.
How would that be possible? Using the pg_basebackup command I wrote
above, it is clear that I wrote the backup on disk F and not E.
I was just speculating, I would not put too much stock in it.
While writing this post, I started my backup using:
pg_ctl start -D "F:\db_basebackup"
Similar stuff happened with pgAdmin and the log (message about symbolic
link is related to my post from yesterday. I don't know if this could be
involved in the current problem):

Any ideas where to go from here?
In both cases the database got to the point below, which would seem to
indicate everything was alright.
2015-02-06 7:11:38 ET LOG: the re-execution is not required
2015-02-06 7:11:38 ET LOG: the database system is ready for

Also from what I can see the server crashed at this point:
2015-02-06 12:13:59 LOG IS: launch autovacuum processes
2015-02-06 12:14:42 EST LOG: server process (PID 1784) was arrested by
the exception 0x80000004
Now 0x80000004 is supposed to mean:
STATUS_SINGLE_STEP
{EXCEPTION} Single Step A single step or trace operation has just been
completed.
Some digging indicates this is the result of debugger command. Have no
idea how that would invoked in Postgres running production code. This
leads to my default question when I see unexplained behavior on a
Windows machine; do you have anti-virus machine running against the drives?
Thanks a lot again.
Thanks a lot for helping! Guillaume
