If you try to install postgresql on windows XP, using the msi installer, and you choose to not install it as a service - when the install finishes - it fails to run initdb. If you try to run initdb manually, it results in a message about "The program 'postgres' is needed by initdb but was not found in the directory"... ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 4: Have you searched our list archives? http://archives.postgresql.org
