Hello, I downloaded the 8.0 beta Windows installer at http://pgfoundry.org/project= s/pginstaller. It installed wihtout any issue on my W2K SP4 machine. However, when trying to install it on a W2K server through a terminal serve= r session, I have the following error: =3D=3D=3D=3D initdb.log =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D The files belonging to this database system will be owned by user "postgres= ". This user must also own the server process.

My guess is an issue with the identifier given to CreateFileMapping (which = is usualy used to create a shared memory segment, to implement the equivale= nt of Unix's shmget) : In short, if you want the segment created by a service to be visible from a= terminal session, you must prepend "Global\" to it's name. See http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=3D/library/en-us/file= io/base/createfilemapping.asp for more information. Beware, this is not supported under NT4, so you must have conditionnal code= to prepend this only from W2K or up. Also, there are similar issues with the name given to CreateMutex and OpenM= utex (used to implement cross-process synchronisation objects). Hope this helps Regards Thomas Boudalier Neolane PS: I am a very big fan of PostgreSQL, and so far have converted dozains of= our customers. Keep up the good work.
