The following bug has been logged online: Bug reference: 5699 Logged by: Johannes Meidert Email address: johannes.meid...@rohde-schwarz.com PostgreSQL version: 9.0.1 Operating system: windows Description: Postgres runs only under default user. Details: If a --superaccount is specified during installation other than 'postgres', the service will not start correctly and there are lots of errors "role <postgres> does not exist" in the DB error log. The option -- superaccount should be removed.
It does seem a bit odd - if the super account is wired into the database cluster at initdb time, you'd think it'd be read from there on startup.
Comments, anybody? This report hasn't seen a response, but seems to have some legitimacy as a usability issue if not an outright bug.
