I installed the latest versino of cygwin which includes postgresql. I'm having a problem with initdb hanging.
Here's a copy of what I'm doing:
----------------------------------------------------------
 
$ initdb -D /usr/local/pgsql/data
This database system will be initialized with username "Greg
This user will own all the data files and must also own the
 
Creating directory /usr/local/pgsql/data
Creating directory /usr/local/pgsql/data/base
Creating directory /usr/local/pgsql/data/global
Creating directory /usr/local/pgsql/data/pg_xlog
Creating template1 database in /usr/local/pgsql/data/base/1
 
 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
It hangs on this last statement and never seems to be able to createte the template1 database.
 
Any suggestion?
Thanks,
Greg Riddick
