Postgres server startup
Hi,
When logged in as administrator, i start the postgres server with
the following command:
runas /user:postgres "D:\postgres_new\pgsql\bin\pg_ctl.exe start -D
D:\postgres_new\pgsql\data"
The problem is "runas" cmd is not script friendly as i can not
pass the password as a cmd line argument.Is there any way i can start the
postgres server using pg_ctl.exe while logged in as administrator without
using "runas" ??
Thanks!

why isn't it installed as a Windows Service, then any administrator can
start it with....
NET START PGSQL_8.3
