Hi,

Gud day!

I would like to use, postgres and currently installed cygwin, but unfortunately when i started creating a new database
cluster...as i've followed in.. FAQ_MSWIN 

3b.  Use the initdb command to create a new database cluster.  An
         example command would be:

            initdb -D /usr/local/pgsql/data -W -E LATIN1

--- i got error message from cygwin shell... the following are the error i commited

creating template1 database in /usr/local/pgsql/data/base/1... FATAL: Lock file :/usr/local/pgsql/data/postmaster.pid"
alreadyexists 
HINT: Is another postgres (PID 1836) running in data directory ":/usr/local/pgsql/data"?

initdb: failed


--- another thing is i always encountered error when i start creating data base

psql: could not connect to server: Connection refused
         Is the server running locally and accepting
         connections on Unix domain socket "/tmp/.s.PGSQL.5432"?

what is the problem? hope for your immediate respose
thanks.
