Problems with installation of cygwin/postgreSQL
-----------------------------------------------

I have installed cygwin today directy from internet
(http://cygwin.com/ --> "Install Cygwin now'
with PostgreSQL database).

I have downloaded and installed cygipc-1.14-1.tar.bz2

In the Cygwin shell :

ipc-daemon &

initdb -D /usr/local/pgsql/data -W -E LATIN1

but i receive tbe error :

$ initdb -D /usr/local/pgsql/data -W -E LATIN1
The files belonging to this database system will be owned by user "hhdg".
This user must also own the server process.

The database cluster will be initialized with locale C.
