Hello,
I am new to unix environment as till date all my development is done in
Window's only. Now for my new proj i have to use ur database server, and
i am finding problem in loading it on to my Windows Operating System. I
will be gratefull of u if u pls help me out.
 I have downloaded cygipc and cygwin on. When I open my cygwin shell
window and enters initdb -D /usr/local/pgsql/data -W -E LATIN1 command i
get this error msg -
                basename: not found
                grep:not found
                grep:not found
                sed:not found
                sed:not found
                : bug :version number has wrong format.

I have dowloaded and unzipped the cygipc files into the cygwin folder as
i read in different documents on the net.
  I am using WindowXP and also pls help me how to configure it as window
services.
Thankingyou,
Gurcharan

Hello,

grep, sed etc are unix programs that are independent of postgres.  Rerun
your cygwin setup installation program and choose those packages to be
installed.  See the mailing lists at www.cygwin.com for more
information.
