Thread: BUG: 8.0 beta1 does not run on Windows 2000 Terminal Server
8.0 beta1 does not run on Windows 2000 Terminal Server. This is the http://pgfoundry.org/projects/pginstaller/ download from 08/09/2004. It ran OK for me on Win2K Pro, so I suspect this is caused by the terminal server stuff; I have experienced differences in shared memory code between terminal server and non terminal server in the past. postmaster throws this error immediately. FATAL: could not create shared memory segment: No error DETAIL: Failed system call was shmget(key=5432001, size=10731520, 03600). (BTW, trying to get PG running under Windows has reminded me how absolutely horrid cmd.exe is :-( )

This is a known issue, currently under investigation. It's (somewhat incorrectly) being tracked by the pginstaller bug tracker, because that's where it was first added. Bruce, can we get this one on the open items as well? "Fix shared memory on Win2k terminal server". Glen - can you confirm if this happens only on terminal server in "Application Mode" or if it also affects "Remote Administration Mode"? //Magnus
