AHA!! I now understand. So is "pgini" the script you type when you do a
clean install or what you type in first thing after you open the Cygwin
shell at the start of each working day?
Because I opened the Cygwin shell and just typed in the "db-start" script,
thinking that I wouldn't have to retype in the "pgini" script since I
already typed that in when I first installed Cygwin & PostgreSQL.
And this is what I typed in (and what happened afterward):
export CYGWIN=server
PATH=/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:$PATH
export PATH
echo
echo "cygserver starting..."
cygserver &
ps -f
echo
echo "PostgreSQL starting..."
postmaster -i -D /var/postgresql/data &
(After I typed in that last line I got this response:)
[2] 466483
$ FATAL: shmat(id=65536) failed: Invalid argument
Any ideas why it did that?
(Just in case you weren't aware, I'm using Windows 98SE, PostgreSQL 7.4.3.1
and Cygwin 1.5.10-3)
I really, REALLY appreciate your help Hans!!!!!!!!
God bless!
Dan

hi dan,
what i forgot to say:
if you really type in one command after the other (so as to learn what's
going on), then - instead of typing in "./db-stop" - you have to type in
all commands from my "db-stop"-script-lines.
but then the "kill..."-line won't work! instead just type in "ps -f",
then you get the list of all processes running at the moment, remember
the process-number of cygserver (very left coloumn of ps - output) and
then type in: "kill <process-number>" (e.g. kill 3024). this makes a
shutdown of cygserver.
hope that helps!
hans
