Hello,

PG 11.8 in Windows 10 and currently PG 11.11

Yesterday [07th May] morning when we switched on the computer and subsequently PGAdmin, we got the message following message
FATAL: the database system is starting up

I uninstalled PG and installed [v 11.11] PG with the same data directory.  Fortunately it worked even when we switched off /on the computer for lunch.   NO issues yesterday.

First why switch the computer off for lunch?

If it's a desktop and he's a developer, then that's reasonable.


Second did you stop the Postgres server before shutting down the machine?

Is Windows Postgresql a service?  If so then Windows "should" shut it down cleanly when you cleanly power off the machine.


The log would indicate otherwise:

2021-05-08 10:26:20.783 IST [7360] LOG: database system was interrupted; last known up at 2021-05-07 18:46:00 IST

So something is not working as it should.
