[snipity snip snip] Notwithstanding all the previous discussion. I still think there is a problem with postgresql on windows. Messages in the log are consistently of the form: 2009-06-23 08:28:26 EST WARNING: worker took too long to start; cancelled FATAL: could not reattach to shared memory (key=252, addr=023F0000): 487 2009-06-23 08:35:58 EST WARNING: worker took too long to start; cancelled FATAL: could not reattach to shared memory (key=252, addr=023F0000): 487 Postgres is actually usable if I restart the service after the machine has booted up. This fixes the problem triggering the error message: "Error connecting to the server: server closed the connection unexpectedly. This probably means that the server terminated abnormally before or while processing the request." However the above messages are still appearing. Personally I have no issues with the installation process. Although I am the first to admit that sometimes I forget to check the log file and the event files. I get used to Linux.
