Hi all. We have included PostgreSQL 8.3(exe) installation in the installation process of our software, and we are experimenting some errors, mainly related with Windows Vista. The problem is that the installation of PosgreSQL seems to be correct, but the service is not started afterwards. I tried to start it manually but takes a lot of time and finally a windows error appears telling that "the PostgreSQL Database server 8.3 service on Local Computer Started and then stopped. Some services stop automatically if they have no work to do" I've read something in the forum related with the pg_hba.conf configuration file. We distribute this file in the client machines with the follOwing lines: # IPv4 local connections: host all all 127.0.0.1/32 md5 host DATABASE_NAME all 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 md5 # IPv6 local connections: #host all all ::1/128 md5 Do you know where could be the problem? Thanks in advance for any suggestion.
