Re: During InitDB: could not access file "$

Vitaly,

For Viruscan, disabled temporally the Anti-virus with context menu is not
sufficient, postmaster and postgres has still continued to fail at start up.

I made a test by desintalling the anti virus, and Postgresql started
successfully. After re-installing the anti-virus, the errors appears again,
so I decided to check the security options to find where the problem come
from.

If it can help you.

regards

Laurent Ballester
