PostgreSQL Startup Problem on Win98
Hi All,
The PostgreSQL binary version i got works like a charm on WinXP (Office
System). But when i try to run the same at
home. It doesnt start up.
c:>initdb command works like a charm, it creates data directory, with
template1 as database.
c:>postmaster command fails
it says something like FATAL Error Database "karthikeyan" not created
but when i try
c:> pg_ctl start -l logfile
it doesnt give any error and database is started after that when i issue.
c:>psql -d template1
i get this error message
Is the server running on localhost and accepting
TCP/IP connection on port 5432
When i checked this conf file [ postgresql.conf ] port = 5432 is commented
out
What am i doing wrong here.
PS : I didnt face this issue on WinXP, only on Win98
Looking forward for some response.

You've probably already thought of this one, but just in case: did
you start Postmaster with the -i option? On Linux, at any rate, it
won't accept TCP/IP connections without it.

There is no -i option the version i use.
Anyway i m just happy that it works on WinXP eventhough it doesnt on win98.

TIP 4: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
