Re: make error during PostgreSQL installation on windowsusingcygwin

Hi Jason

Thanks a million! Installation done.

Compiled from source after downloading PostgreSQL 7.2.3. Used your patch
and your inputs on the issue to complete the installation.

Best Regards.

Godson R.

Did you kill the postgres process? If not, then I have never
experienced the above. Sorry, but you will have to debug this
problem yourself.
