Hello,

I'm puzzled by a SYSID mismatch I'm seeing on my system. I have a service that fires up PostgreSQL without problems,
usingpg_ctl via a python script. However, if I execute "pg_ctl start" from a command line I get an error stating that
theWAL file SYSID differs from the pg_control SYSID. The service uses my login, so I don't expect permissions are an
issue.I've verified that the same data directory is being used in both attempts, but the service succeeds and a manual
startfails. Does anyone have a pointer as to what I'm missing? 

Tech Info:
Windows 7 Pro 64-bit
PostgreSQL 8.3.15

Thanks very much,
Tom
