The following bug has been logged online: Bug reference: 5786 Logged by: Jemshir A.P Email address: jamsheer....@gmail.com PostgreSQL version: pgsql8 Operating system: Windows Server 2003 Description: Cannot start pgsql8 application with Previleged account (Admin account) Details:
Hi Team, We are the system administrator for the Windows server 2003 system and we have an issue with an application running with "pgsql8". While starting the application service, it is not getting strated if we are starting with any account having admin rights. It is giving the common error message "Some services will not strat if it has nothong to do". But we can strat the service successfully with a local or domain account which is have only user rights (Member of only users or only having user rights on the server). Inshort the application services are starting only with under previleged account. Myrequirement is to start the application service with an account having admin rights. I have got this link which is discussing on almost similiar situation. But cant understand it clearly. Kindly explain me if it is a known issue. http://postgresql.1045698.n5.nabble.com/A-patch-to-pg-regress-for-Windows-po rt-td2219653.html Please guide me on this and let me know about the above error. Your earlier reply will be higghly appreciable. Regards, Jemshir.A.P In the application log of the server i can find the following even ID Event ID - 0 Source - PostgreSQL Type - Error Description :- The description for Event ID ( 0 ) in Source ( PostgreSQL ) cannot be found. The local computer may not have the necessary registry information or message DLL files to display messages from a remote computer. You may be able to use the /AUXSOURCE= flag to retrieve this description; see Help and Support for details. The following information is part of the event: Execution of PostgreSQL by a user with administrative permissions is not permitted. The server must be started under an unprivileged user ID to prevent possible system security compromises. See the documentation for more information on how to properly start the server. -- Sent via pgsql-bugs mailing list (pgsql-bugs@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-bugs
