> Any ideas now? Are you *sure* you have checked the permissions of the os user_id that is assigned to run the postgreSQL service ? PG is very specific about the permissions it wants and just as importantly it is very specific about the permissions it DOES NOT want. I would suggest you start with this entry which describes installing on Windows. http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Running_%26_Installing_PostgreSQL_On_Native_Windows I have installed PG on a number of Win OS machines and in almost every time when I have run into issues you described above it has come back to a permissions. As an example, last time a customer's network tech changed the user_id of the database service to a 'domain admin' and on the next reboot of the box, the pg service just wouldn't start. When we changed it back to a domain user everything worked as it should ... after spending 3 hrs trying to sort out what the problem was. -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
