Re: PostgreSQL doesn't accept connections when Windows

Hi Thomas

Cool!

And -o gives me the pid of the process which I can match with processes
through the Task Manager...

The problem I'm having is that if the server (Windows 2000) is rebooted, the
PostgreSQL service starts as expected, but won't accept connections. Bur if
the PostgreSQL service is then restarted manually (via Administrative Tools
> Component Services > Restart), the service runs as expected and everything
is normal.

If I understand what you're suggesting, perhaps upon reboot PostgreSQL is
starting before another app that listens on the same port, which could cause
the problem, but if I then restart the PostgreSQL service this solves the
problem?
