   Hi all. I have just installed PostgreSQL 7.0 using Cygwin under Windows
2000 Professional + SP2. It seems to work fine, but when I start the
database (by running postgres.exe) it reports an error:

DEBUG:  Data Base System is starting up at Tue Sep  2 08:12:36 2003
DEBUG:  Data Base System was interrupted being in production at Wed May 24

DEBUG:  Data Base System is in production state at Tue Sep  2 08:12:36 2003
FATAL 1:  Version number in file 'd:\databases\postgresql70/PG_VERSION'
should be 7.0
, not 7.0
.
FATAL 1:  Version number in file 'd:\databases\postgresql70/PG_VERSION'

   Does anyone know why this happens and/or how can I solve it? thanks a
lot.

Version 7.0 is ancient.  The current version is 7.3.4.  In fact, that's
the version included in the Cygwin distribution itself.  Use the online
setup tool to install it.
