Re: pg_service.conf file on Windows

Yes, that part I understood. The issue I was having was that it wasn't
finding my actual file that defined the services. Not sure, but I suspect
that the issue was that I hadn't fully stopped the service after I defined
the environment variable specifying where my pg_service.conf file was
located. It seems to working now with a system environment variable and
after a reboot.
