Hi all

I'm trying to stop the service that controls a warm standby server, but
issuing a 'net stop <service_name>'
command fails to stop the service, however the service appears as
stopped on the Services Snap-In.
Checking the process tree, I can see that only the pg_ctl.exe process
was removed
from the root of tree, other postgres.exe processes remains running.
Also the file postmaster.pid
is present in the data directory.
The only option that worked was to kill the processes and remove the
postmaster.pid manually.
Any Ideas of what's happenning?
System: Windows 2008 R2 x64 standard, PostgreSQL 9.0.1 32bits
