Thread: Problems installing CygIPC for PostgreSQL
I've been following the directions from this site to install PostgreSQL on
a Windows XP machine:
http://www.ejip.net/faq/postgresql_win_setup_faq.jsp
Apparently CygIPC has been included with the Cygwin distribution since this
set of instructions has been written. I think I'm getting a bit lost as to
what I should do for the CygIPC install.. At one point the instructions
say:
1. To test the CygIPC install, launch a Cygwin shell window from the
desktop or Windows Start Menu and type:
ipc-daemon &
It should echo its process number and give no errors.
I do this and get the message:
$ bash: ipc-daemon: command not found
Any help would be appreciated.

Sorry. This was supposed to go to the cygwin mailing list.
