Thread: cygrunsrv example
Hello,
I noticed that the example in cygrunsrv readme:
cygrunsrv --install postmaster2 \
--path /usr/bin/postmaster \
--args "-D /usr/share/postgresql/data -i -d 2 -o '-o
/var/log/postgres.log'" \
--dep ipc-daemon --termsig INT --user postgresql
has -d2 in the options. I was wondering wether it might be a good
idea if someone where to mention this to the cygwin team (Jason? You seem
pretty well boned up). On the other hand if everyone else thinks -d2 is a
good default I'll just slip back to lurking :).

That example is not a general recommendation of how to configure
postgresql with cygrunsrv, but rather just a sample (near worst case)
configuration that happens to display real usage of many of the
cygrunsrv options. I intend to write up some documentation specific
to the postgresql-with-cygrunsrv case. Here's a sampler:
The simplest configuration might be something like this:
cygrunsrv --install postmaster \
--path /usr/bin/postmaster \
--dep ipc-daemon
assuming that PGDATA is set in the system environment such that the
service picks it up as a default.
A more typical configuration might look like this:
cygrunsrv --install postmaster \
--path /usr/bin/postmaster \
--args "-D /usr/share/postgresql/data -i" \
--dep ipc-daemon

Fred has already answered the above, but please translate "boned up" into US English. :,) Thanks, Jason -- Jason Tishler Director, Software Engineering Phone: 732.264.8770 x235 Dot Hill Systems Corp.

Hmmm, perhaps I should engage brain b4 fingers :). Any way by boned up I was meaning skilled with/ knowledgable about, and definitely no other meaning :) - Stuart > -----Original Message----- > From: Jason Tishler [SMTP:Jason.Tishler@dothill.com] > Sent: Wednesday, May 30, 2001 2:21 PM > To: Henshall, Stuart - WCP > Cc: 'pgsql-cygwin@postgresql.org' > Subject: Re: [CYGWIN] cygrunsrv example > > Stuart, > > On Wed, May 30, 2001 at 11:02:49AM +0100, Henshall, Stuart - WCP wrote: > > Hello, > > I noticed that the example in cygrunsrv readme: > > cygrunsrv --install postmaster2 \ > > --path /usr/bin/postmaster \ > > --args "-D /usr/share/postgresql/data -i -d 2 -o '-o > > /var/log/postgres.log'" \ > > --dep ipc-daemon --termsig INT --user postgresql > > > > has -d2 in the options.

I knew that it had good connotations -- I just couldn't figure out what they were. Good thing we both speak "English." :,) Thanks, Jason -- Jason Tishler Director, Software Engineering Phone: 732.264.8770 x235 Dot Hill Systems Corp.
