Hi,
I did not run the initdb.exe and thats why i could not start the
server.Here is what i did:
1. Executed initdb.exe as follows:
runas /user:postgres "D:\pgsql\bin\initdb.exe -D:\pgsql\data"
2.Started the server by executing the following cmd:
runas /user:postgres "D:\pgsql\bin\pg_ctl.exe -w start -D D:\pgsql\data"
and it started fine.Thanks to Richard and Ray !
