PostgreSQL Version: v1.8.2
System: Windows 2000 Server

I am having a problem starting the PostgreSQL server. I
get the following Log errors:

LOG: unrecognized win32 error code: 487
FATAL: could not reattach to shared memory (key=5432001, addr=015E0000): Invalid argument

What do I need to do to repair this?

Thanks!
Dan

I think you need to restart the service.

I have restarted the server as suggested and the problem
went away. Guess it is intermittent...
