Re: trouble connecting with psql to running server

Hey laetitia -
I changed the command to launch the server. Now I can see the server
process. I can connect with Windows console (cmd). Mingw msys hangs when I
try to get to a cmd prompt with psql command. I will just use windows shell.

Last night, I had 2 conflicts. I had a server running from older version of
postgres I saw in services, so I uninstalled that prior version. Then I had
transposed port number and kept trying to execute it with console history.

So thanks for the help pointing out wrong port number and troubleshooting.

I am off to execute some cmake code to see if soci 4 will work with
postgresql.

Thnx- Roboloki
