Fwd: Re: Archiving problem on Windows

When I login as user postgres, I can copy the files without any
problem.
Here is the error message (translated as it appears in German in my log
files):
>>copy pg_xlog\myfile C:\Archive\DBArchive\myfile<< failed: error code
1
>>copy pg_xlog\myfile C:\Archive\DBArchive\myfile<< failed: error code

>>copy pg_xlog\myfile C:\Archive\DBArchive\myfile<< failed: error code
