Hello, I have installed PostgreSQL 8.beta2.dev3 on Windows 2000 NT using the installer. There were two dialogs with messages like "Couldn't connect to the server" or so. Then when I try to connect I get this message:
C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\8.0-beta2-dev3\bin>psql.exe psql.exe: server closed the connection unexpectedly This probably means the server terminated abnormally before or while processing the request. The information in the log file is: "2004-09-17 10:06:53 Central European Daylight Time LOG: could not receive data from client: An operation was attempted on something that is not a socket. 2004-09-17 10:06:53 Central European Daylight Time LOG: incomplete startup packet" Beside that, once every minute the following lines are written there too: "2004-09-17 10:07:54 Central European Daylight Time LOG: select() failed in statistics collector: An operation was attempted on something that is not a socket. 2004-09-17 10:07:54 Central European Daylight Time LOG: select() failed in statistics buffer: An operation was attempted on something that is not a socket. 2004-09-17 10:07:54 Central European Daylight Time LOG: statistics collector process (PID 2396) was terminated by signal 1" The PID is different every time. I was told to send a bug report in the #postgresql channel on irc.freenode.net IRC server. I apologize if it is a known bug or not a bug at all.
