Re: Reg: Pg_Ctl command help

When you open a command shell to execute pg_ctl, all commands, including Postgresql will be
terminated once you close the command shell. As Rene stated, the proper way to start and stop PostgreSQL is to use the Services from the Task Manager.

How did you install it? It should be installed as a service.

Hello,

 

I have a query regarding starting the Postgres server using the ‘pg_ctl’ command in the command prompt (Windows OS).

 

I try to start  the postgres server using the following command,

pg_ctl -D "C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\9.6\data" start -w

 

After the server gets started, I’m closing the command prompt. But as soon as I close the console, the server gets forcefully shutdown. Again I have to restart the server  through command prompt.

Is there any way, where after starting the server, I have to exit the command prompt, still running the server at the background.

 

Please help me to resolve this issue.

 

Thanks & Regards,

A. Nadeem Ahmed
