Re: Service not starting during install

[Frank Featherlight <dirtydude@xxxxxxxxx>]

Read about the same error somewhere and he said he resolved it with sfc /scannow.

 

Got a new error after I ran sfc /scannow and tried starting the postgresql service:

Can not start the PostgreSQL Database 8.3-service on Local computer.
Error 1053: The service did not respond correctly to the start- or sendcommand.
(translated from Dutch)

The postgresql log said the following:

FATAL: could not reattach to shared memory (key=1764, addr=01650000): 487

etcetc.

Any ideas now?
