Thread: Tons of postgres.exe processes

Tons of postgres.exe processes

From

Hi, so I installed native 8.03 on my XP SP2 box - just for testing, I need only support for about 3-4 simult. connections.
 
However I installed it and open the Task manager - and see at least a hundred instances of postgres.exe process in there... And I can't find a way to remedy this. I have no running connections so technically it's redundant to have that amount of processes.
 
Also I started experiening apps failing to start, show menus or init other controls properly when running postgres. Otherwise I could connect with the GUI admin and make a db and a table in it...
 
Please help me resolve this.
