I'd certainly recommend SP2 in all cases though - nobody should really be using XP without it. > part of pg_log: (well other logs are empty for some > reason and last part of text repeats few times in this > first log) > > 2007-08-05 22:20:29 LOG: checkpoint record is at > 0/487970 > 2007-08-05 22:20:29 LOG: redo record is at 0/487970; > undo record is at 0/0; shutdown TRUE > 2007-08-05 22:20:29 LOG: next transaction ID: 0/595; > next OID: 10820 > 2007-08-05 22:20:29 LOG: next MultiXactId: 1; next > MultiXactOffset: 0 > 2007-08-05 22:20:30 LOG: could not receive data from > client: An operation was attempted on something that > is not a socket.
