Joshua,

      Thanks for reply. But I tried 8.4.4 and it still doesn't work with local 
administrator account on windows 2003 . I don't want to create additional 
"postgres" user to start service on windows rather I want to use my currently 
logged in user. User can be administrator or non-administrator.
See --serviceaccount and --servicepassword CLI options to the installer, you can provide any existing user with its corresponding password as the postgres service owner.


I am getting an "error code 5" in event viewer when I try to use administrator 
as service user.Before attempting that I used initdb to create
Data directory with same user

Thanks&  Regards,
Vikram

Hello Folks,



    I am facing an issue starting postgresql using windows service when
my user belongs to Administrator group.



    I applied patch from following thread to 8.4.1 source code and it
seems to be working with every windows operating system except Windows
2003 .

There is a reason the community provides binary packages. The idea that
you are patching 8.4.1 is quite ridiculous. Upgrade to 8.4.4.


Sincerely,
