This took me hours to find ...
On my Windows box, CVS HEAD gets an execution failure on "initdb foo"
but succeeds happily with "initdb -D foo".
This is not true for REL8_1_STABLE, nor is it true for all
Windows machines/environments, apparently, otherwise we would
be seeing failures from the buildfarm member snake, since the
buildfarm script does "initdb data".
My suspicion is that this is some side effect of the
restricted-exec patch, but I don't have time to dig further right now.
Um, so what error msg do you get when it's failing?
I get a popup box that says:
initdb.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close.
We are sorry for the inconvenience.
Clicking a link gives this info:
AppName: initdb.exe AppVer: 8.2.0.6051 ModName: msvcrt.dll
ModVer: 7.0.2600.1106 Offset: 00033830
It wouldn't let me copy the rest of the info ;-(
cheers
