Hey, I am working on testing our windows version of software which uses postgress on a machine with XP Pro and 512 meg of memory. The very first time I installed, it was fine except for the fact it was only listening on the localhost 127.0.0.1 and I need it listening on its ip address. Since, I have not been able to re-install. I have tried thoroughly cleaning machine and registry. The issue always comes back to a 1920 error, do you have permissions in the event viewer and always fails to start the service. I even wiped away my test box for our product and installed a fresh copy of windows on top of my old version. zip :-) Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong? We have an end of the year rush and we have a number of people world wide who would be using this once we can actually test it.
