Re: Starting Postgresql as windows service

Rajarajan,

please check the postgresql logs witin <your data directory> pg_log

your data directory defaults to
[programs]\Postgresql\8.1\data

where [programs] is ~"Programs and Files" in US Windows, and "Programme" in
German Windows.

Propably there is some problem with postgresql.conf or access to your
datafiles; the log may tell
