Hello,
I am installing Cygwin in my Windows XP machine to use
PostgreSql.
I have been having trouble running the initdb command. Intially
I tried using the ipc-daemon2. After reading the archieve I found
that I need to use the Cygserver instead of ipc-daemon2. I followed
the documentation for Cygserver, did all the steps mentioned therein
and tried the initdb command. Still it fails with a lot of SIGNAL 12
messages as it did while using the ipc-daemon2. I would appreciate if
I could get some info. on how to fix this problem. The screen print
from my initdb command is shown below:
$ initdb -D /usr/local/pgsql/data
The files belonging to this database system will be owned by user
"c-chatari.ramesh".
This user must also own the server process.
The database cluster will be initialized with locale C.
