I'm frantically trying to get PostgreSQL 7.0.3 installed on my laptop so
I can work on my database while on holiday next week. I've got it to
compile fine with the latest version of Cygwin, with cygipc-1.08,
however, when I start postmaster, it fails:
$ ipc-daemon &
$ postmaster -i &
[2] 528923
$ G:\CYGW\USR\LOCAL\PGSQL\BIN\POSTGRES.EXE: *** recreate_mmaps_after_for
k_failed
Startup failed - abort
NOTICE: IpcMemoryDetach: shmdt(0x0x82f6a000): Invalid argument
NOTICE: IpcMemoryDetach: shmdt(0x0x86ba1000): Invalid argument
NOTICE: IpcMemoryDetach: shmdt(0x0x82c50000): Invalid argument
I have applied the patch indicated in a previous thread for cygipc, but
the error still persists. I note from the mailing list that someone has
had PostgreSQL working under Win98 before - I would be extremely
grateful if someone could help me get this working.
I can't seem to get gdb to work properly under Cygwin (would not find
the source files), so I was unable to step through the code and see what
the problem is.
