I'm new to cygwin(1.1.6) & postgreSQL(7.0.3).

when start postmaster:
postmaster -i&

I got:
DEBUG: Data Base System is starting up at Thu Feb 8 10:12:53 2001
DEBUG: Data Base System was interrupted being in production at Wed Feb 7
23:02:36 2001
DEBUG: Data Base System is in production state at Thu Feb 8 10:12:53 2001

psql -h localhost template1

when try to create database
$ createdb test
psql: connectDBStart() -- connect() failed: No such file or directory
Is the postmaster running at 'localhost'
and accepting connections on Unix socket '5432'?
createdb: database creation failed
