Reposting to mailing list instread of newsgroup to see if I can get a
response. ipc-daemon2 will not run when
installed using the --install-as-service option. Does ipc-daemon2 write a
log. I didn't see one in the /var/log directory and I'm not sure where
syslog goes in cygipc.

My original post:
------------------

I upgraded to the latest postgresql using ipc-daemon2. I can start both
ipc-daemon2 and postmaster
from the command line, but when I tried to install them as a service,
ipc-daemon2, fails with message:

The ipc-daemon service on Local Computer started then stopped...

I set the ipc_daemon2 up as a service as follows:

cygrunsrv --install ipc-daemon --desc "CygWin IPC Daemon" --path
/bin/ipc-daemon2.exe --termsig INT --shutdown

Also tried:

ipc-daemon2 --install-as-service

and this also fails with the same message.

I've tried running the service under Local System account as well as
Administrator accounts with the same error message resulting.

Any ideas?
