From: Harald Armin Massa Hi Harald,
>I guess your service is not running after rebooting? You can check this via services.msc This is what is confusing me - the service IS running after rebooting, but does not appear to be listening on port 5435. If I simply restart the service in the Administrative Tools > Component Services section everything is fine. >>During the installation process, when it came time to run initdb, the installer would stop with the error message: >> "Failed to run initdb: 128. Please see the logfile in 'C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\8.1\tmp\initdb.log. > > Note! You must read/copy this logfile before you click OK, or it will be automatically removed." > Did you read that log? Read and copy it befor clicking OK, just as the message stated? When I tried to (before clicking OK), there was no initdb.log file - or any other file - in the 'C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\8.1\tmp\ directory. >One try to repair this: login as Administrator, open services.msc, and from the postgreSQL service refill the login information. That does reset the LOGON_AS_SERVICE privilege. I'll give this a try and see what happens.
