Thread: Error in accessing root user
Hi
I am a new user to Cygwin. I have installed the windows version of the Cygwin. I am able to execute ipc-daemon.exe, initdb, postmaster etc. But whenever I am trying to enter
$su
or
$su - -c "createuser postgres"
or
$su - postgres
I am getting "su: user root does not exist" as an error.
What is the cause for this? What is the remedy?
Thanks in advance
