Thanks, Chris. I haven't noticed, that a service named ipc-daemon (displayed as
"Cygwin IPC Daemon") had not been installed at all during PostgreSQL installation
process! So, after creating this service "by hand" using Windows' "sc" utility everything
seems to work.
But the strange thing occurred: yesterday I have installed PostgreSQL on twin-made
computers: the same hardware, the same OS - Win 2003 SE PL installed. The only
difference between them were the Windows serial numbers as my coleaques from our
service dept told me :-). And in the first case installation ended succesfully, but in the
second one problems with initdb ocuured (as described before). Cute, isn't it? :-/.
Thanks again for your help!
PS. Previously I have sent my answer to your priv by mistake, sorry
