The following bug has been logged online: Bug reference: 5683 Logged by: Email address: donova...@yahoo.com PostgreSQL version: 9.0.0 Operating system: Windows7 x64 Description: Service path incorrectly configured Details:
The windows service for starting the database has an incorrectly configured execution path. By default, it is: C:/Program Files/PostgreSQL/9.0/bin/pg_ctl.exe runservice -N "postgresql-x64-9.0" -D "C:/Program Files/PostgreSQL/9.0/data" -w However, / is not valid for Windows. It should be: C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\9.0\bin\pg_ctl.exe runservice -N "postgresql-x64-9.0" -D "C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\9.0\data" -w After altering this value in the registry at: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\postgresql-x64-9.0 I am now able to start/stop the service normally. -- Sent via pgsql-bugs mailing list (pgsql-bugs@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-bugs
