Thread: Cygrunsrv error
Hello, I followed the guide that came with Cygwin to install PostegreSQL. It was at /usr/share/doc/Cygwin/Postgre. When I was running this command: cygrunsrv -S ipc-daemon2 I get this error: Cygrunsrv: Error starting a service: QueryServiceStatus: Win32 error 1062: The service has not been started. I am running XP Pro with SP1 and I just the latest version of Cygwin to download and install the programs that the guide said I needed. I added the path to Cygwin to the system path and rebooted and it still failed at that error message. Thanks -Ben Sytko

Does the following from the README help?
4. Cygwin PostgreSQL can fail to start or not function properly if
certain files and directories have incorrect permissions. The
following usually solves these kinds of problems:
$ chmod a+rwx /tmp
$ chmod a+rx /usr/bin /usr/bin/*
$ chmod a+rw /var/log # could adversely affect other daemons

Jason, I tried the CHMOD commands and they didn't help. I vaguely followed this guide topic you covered here (thanks Google): http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-cygwin/2003-10/msg00080.php I couldn't keep up because the the next buttons just take me to the next thread. Really confusing.. Anyway I will try a clean install of Cygwin and see if that helps.

Doh! I read Ben's post as:
cygrunsrv -S postmaster
^^^^^^^^^^
Sorry, for the noise.
