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 -----Original Message----- From: Joshua D.

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, Joshua D.
