Обсуждение: Updated Cygwin Package: postgresql-7.4.2-1
New News:
=== ====
I have updated the version of PostgreSQL to 7.4.2-1. The tarballs should
be available on a Cygwin mirror near you shortly.
The following are notable changes since the previous release:
o build against cygserver instead of cygipc
o upgrade to PostgreSQL 7.4.2
Old News:
=== ====
PostgreSQL is an open-source, Object-Relational DBMS. If interested,
see the PostgreSQL web site for more details:
http://www.postgresql.org/
Please read the README file:
/usr/share/doc/Cygwin/postgresql-7.4.2.README
since it covers requirements, installation, known issues, etc.
To update your installation, click on the "Install Cygwin now" link on
the http://cygwin.com/ web page. This downloads setup.exe to your
system. Then, run setup and answer all of the questions.
Note that we have recently stopped downloads from sources.redhat.com
(aka cygwin.com) due to bandwidth limitations. This means that you will
need to find a mirror which has this update.
In the US,
ftp://mirrors.rcn.net/mirrors/sources.redhat.com/cygwin/
is a reliable high bandwidth connection.
In Germany,
ftp://ftp.uni-erlangen.de/pub/pc/gnuwin32/cygwin/mirrors/cygnus/
is usually pretty good.
In the UK,
http://programming.ccp14.ac.uk/ftp-mirror/programming/cygwin/pub/cygwin/
is usually up-to-date within 48 hours.
If one of the above doesn't have the latest version of this package
then you can either wait for the site to be updated or find another
mirror.
The setup.exe program will figure out what needs to be updated on your
system and will install newer packages automatically.
If you have questions or comments, please send them to the Cygwin
mailing list at: cygwin@cygwin.com . I would appreciate if you would
use this mailing list rather than emailing me directly. This includes
ideas and comments about the setup utility or Cygwin in general.
If you want to make a point or ask a question, the Cygwin mailing list
is the appropriate place.

C:\cygwin\bin is in the system path. Here is the error when run from a bash shell prompt: $ cygrunsrv -S postmaster cygrunsrv: Error starting a service: QueryServiceStatus: Win32 error 1062: The service has not been started. The Windows event viewer lists the following errors: postmaster : PID 3388 : starting service `r' failed: redirect_fd: open (1, /var/log/postmaster.log): 13, Permission denied. postmaster : PID 2716 : starting service `postmaster' failed: execv: 1, Operation not permitted. postmaster seems to load normally from a command line with pg_ctl. I tried installing it as a service to be run by the postgres user (with privileges to run as a service) per the README, and then by my logon when that failed. Thanks, David P. Lurie

Does the following from the README help?
3. Cygwin PostgreSQL can fail to start or not function properly if
certain files and directories have incorrect permissions. The
following usually solves these kinds of problems:
$ chmod a+rwx /tmp
$ chmod a+rx /usr/bin /usr/bin/*
$ chmod a+rw /var/log # could adversely affect other daemons
In particular, note the third chmod above.

There was another problem with postgresql configuration that I hadn't mentioned. initdb failed when run as the user "postgres", but completed successfully under my usual login. These permission changes now allow initdb to run from the "postgres" account. postmaster still successfully installs as a service, but fails to run, whether installed to run under my usual login or "postgres" (after initdb has been run under the appropriate account).

I tried again, changing the logon account for postmaster from within the windows Services snap-in, and can now get postmaster to load as a service using my normal logon account. However, reconfiguring to run from the postgres account from the Services snap-in still fails with the same error. The postgres account does have "logon as a service" enabled under local security policy, per the README. David P. Lurie
