Hi,
On Windows, this is really easy to have this problem : create a replication s=
lot then try to restart the server. The server will refuse to start.=20
I checked the file it was not read only. There is nothing I could do to the f=
ile or the directory to succeed in restarting pg.
I put fsync=3Doff and I could start pg. but this is not a good permanent sol=
ution!
