Re: fsync and semctl errors with 8.1.5/win32

Thanks for the feedback. If you don't mind, what version of PostgreSQL
are you running?

I'm trying to bring PostgreSQL into this company - they are primarily a
Windows/SQL Server shop (although Java software development) I've
already gotten comments similar to "Why don't you just switch to SQL
Server?" - so I'm hoping to find a workaround before I get forced to
switch DB platforms. As it is, my application seems unreliable because
I haven't been able to resolve the PostgreSQL hanging problems in
Windows. If I had my way, I'd switch the server to Linux - but alas,
that hasn't been an option so far.

I know this may be the wrong list to ask this question on - but as I'm
an outspoken PostgreSQL advocate, I'd like your opinions. If I am
unable to resolve these PostgreSQL issues given my constraints, will I
likely have less problems running MySQL/InnoDB on Windows? (since it has
had a native Windows build for much longer)
