Hi,
Thanks for all the responses. From the event viewer what I got was that the service was failing b'cos it thought that the database was already and locked by a postmaster.pid file. Just deleting that file helped. Now, the service has started and a new postmaster.pid file has been created. For now, I'm all set, although I'd be curious how I could have gotten into this situation.


If PostgreSQL is not told to shutdown then it will not delete the pid file itself.
