That solved it! When I changed the properties of the service, changing the
password of the user account to run the service, it responded by granting
"postgres" the right to log on as a service. So this must be a uniquely XP
quirk.
Thanks for your help, Mike!

My 2000 machine always shows the login as .\XXXXX I think that windows is
truncating the domain name with the .\
If the logon is failing I would go intothe service properties and re-enter
the password for the postgres account. Reinstalling the service probably
recreated the postrges user account.

Good question! Yet I suspect if it were a permissions issue the service
would not first start and then stop. I would expect some kind of request
denied message. Still, I won't throw out any possibilities at this point.
With the XP Home version I'm not sure how I would find out. The account has
admin privileges but I don't know how I would get more detailed info about
what that includes. (I knew how to do it on NT but this XP is more
automated, and I don't know how to get behind the curtain) So, do you know
how
As I write this, I re-installed the IPC daemon as a service to see how I
might get more details about the error message, and now it works! I don't
know if it makes a difference that this time I installed it from the Cygwin
prompt rather than from a batch file.
But now the problem has shifted. Now when I try to start the postmaster
service, it returns a system error 1069: "The service did not start due to a
logon error." I am logged on as "postgres" (an admin account) and in the
Service Manager it shows "Log on as .\postgres" so I'm not sure where the
problem comes from. Any ideas.

Does the postgres local user account have permission to start and stop
services

Subject: [CYGWIN] Trouble starting ipc-daemon as a service
I'm running on Windows XP Home version, using Cygwin 1.3.14-1,
PostgreSQL 7.2.3, and the ipc-daemon in Cygipc 1.11-1. I have followed the
instructions in usr/doc/Cygwin/postgresql-7.2.3.README. I put it into a
small script file that looks like:
ipc-daemon --install-as-service
cygrunsrv --install postmaster --path /usr/bin/postmaster --args
"-D /usr/share/postgresql/data -i" --dep ipc-daemon --termsig INT --user
postgres --shutdown
mkdir /usr/share/postgresql/data
chown postgres /usr/share/postgresql/data
initdb -D /usr/share/postgresql/data
net start ipc-daemon
net start postmaster
Yet when the script gets to "net start ipc-daemon" I get the
message:
The Cygwin IPC Daemon service is starting.
The Cygwin IPC Daemon service could not be started.
So, of course, the postmaster service also failed. When I tried
going through the Service Manager to start ipc-daemon, it said the service
on Local System "started then stopped" and suggested "Some services stop
automatically if they have no work to do"
Can anyone suggest what I might be doing wrong?
