I think we should just remove the signals support for win32. The trigger file method still works, and the signal method has always been a bit iffy (it doesn't work when pg_standby isn't running, for example, which happens between processing of each WAL file, because there's no process to signal). Is pg_standby killed correctly when postmaster dies? -- Heikki Linnakangas EnterpriseDB http://www.enterprisedb.com -- Sent via pgsql-bugs mailing list (pgsql-bugs@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-bugs
