I followed the instructions for installing postgresql as an NT service
as outlined in the postgresql README, but ended up with the following
error:
$ cygrunsrv -S postmaster
cygrunsrv: Error starting a service: StartService: Win32 error 1069:
The service did not start due to a logon failure.
As what user do you start the service?
The service could not logon as this user.
Makes perfect sense, but I simply followed the instructions in the
README which were fairly straightforward:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
$ cygrunsrv -S cygserver
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
$ initdb -D /var/postgresql/data
...
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
$ cygrunsrv -S postmaster
cyrunsrv: Error ...
Your initdb is started with user "postgresql". Postmaster is started
with user "george". Why not run initdb and and "cygrunsrv -S
postmaster" under the same user? Then, when setting up postmaster from
cygrunsrv, specify the user you choose.
Under user george, you may:
1. Remove the old service:
cygrunsrv -R postmaster # removes the service
2. Reinstall the new service
cygrunsrv --install postmaster --path /usr/bin/postmaster \
--args "-D /var/postgresql/data -i" --dep cygserver \
--user george --termsig INT -e "CYGWIN=server" --shutdown
3. Clear the database directory, then, (still under user george)
initdb -D /var/postgresql/data
4. Run the service
cygrunsrv -S postmaster
HTH.
Thank you very much.
Best Regards,
