I am running PostgreSQL 8.1 on Windows Server 2003. Our setup should allow
a normal (non-administrator) user to start the database. Since the user is
not allowed to start services, I am trying a direct "pg_ctl start"
approach. However, running this from a shortcut, leaves a dos window open
with the words "postmaster starting". After stopping postgres, "logger
shutting down" appears before the window is closed. I have tried to
redirect stdout, stderr and stdin to nul, but this just makes the window
empty, it still does not disappear until the database is stopped. Using
the -l option of pg_ctl also does not help.
Is there a way for this setup to work, without the dos box being visable
all the time? I use system logging, so I don't need the stdout/stderr of
pg_ctl.
Sincerely,
Richard van den Berg, CISSP
