Re: Cygwin Postgresql Signal 12

Hi

I'm trying to run Postgresql under Cygwin on an XP Box and am having the following problem:

Copying skeleton files.
These files are for the user to personalise
their cygwin experience.

These will never be overwritten.

`./.bashrc' -> `/home/dhall//.bashrc'
`./.bash_profile' -> `/home/dhall//.bash_profile'
`./.inputrc' -> `/home/dhall//.inputrc'

dhall(at)daryl-laptop ~
$ ipc-daemon2 &
[1] 204

dhall(at)daryl-laptop ~
$ mkdir /usr/local/pgsql

dhall(at)daryl-laptop ~
$ mkdir /usr/local/pgsql/data

dhall(at)daryl-laptop ~
$ initdb -D /usr/local/pgsql/data
The files belonging to this database system will be owned by user "dhall".
This user must also own the server process.

The database cluster will be initialized with locale C.

Any help you could give would be much appreciated - I've spent some time searching forums etc but can't find anyone else who has had this problem.

That error is because cygserver is not being found. Make sure you
install the new cygserver package, just released for the first time
about a week ago, start it, and make sure the CYGWIN=server is in your
path.
