Now I get nearly the same fork errror message under postgresql 7.4.2 while starting postmaster. It looks like this: -------------------------- [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ CYGWIN=server postmaster -D edge_inline -h localhost -i WARNING: dup(0) failed after 3195 successes: Bad file descriptor C:\cygwin\bin\postgres.exe (2164): *** fork: can't reserve memory for stack 0x30 000 - 0x230000, Win32 error 487 5 [main] postmaster 3336 proc_subproc: Couldn't duplicate my handle<0x7F4> for pid 2164, Win32 error 5 396 [main] postmaster 3336 sync_with_child: child 2164(0x668) died before in itialization with status code 0x1 517 [main] postmaster 3336 sync_with_child: *** child state waiting for long jmp LOG: could not fork statistics buffer: Resource temporarily unavailable 27885 [main] postmaster 3336 fork_copy: linked dll data/bss pass 0 failed, 0x7 7B000..0x787880, done 0, windows pid 3780, Win32 error 487 LOG: could not fork startup process: Resource temporarily unavailable ----------------------------------- [...] > > As for your fork error, try Googling for the exact error message -- > there > are plenty of threads on the subject. > Igor > -- I coulnd't find something helpful with Google, googling for the exact error message or parts from it.
