[sorry for the repost...lists down? Problem may or may not be on win32
version only]
The catalog number was updated, so it was time to run initdb.
Sometime over the weekend (or since the last initdb I ran, about a
week), the source was updated which caused an AV & CRASH during
initdb...specifically during pg_depend step. Also, after initdb fails,
the files are removed but the folders are not, causing subsequent
attempts to initdb not to work...is this the expected hehavior?
Here is the log:
H:\>initdb
The files belonging to this database system will be owned by user
"Merlin.Moncure".
This user must also own the server process.
