Look at the PostgreSQL server log to see what happened. On Windows, I think this is in your PostgreSQL data directory. (List members: This seems to confuse Windows admins a lot - they're not used to application log files, apparently. Is it worth having the win32 version of the server report sudden backend death via the Windows event logging system, with a reference to the Pg log file? I'm not sure, since it's not clear that most Windows admins look at Event Viewer either...) -- Craig Ringer -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
