Re: PostgreSQL_7.5.4-1 on Windows-XP

The faq your are looking at is out of date. ipc-daemon2 was replaced by cygserver a few releases ago. Included in the installation files should be a readme for cygserver. Check it out or browse the mailing list. There have been many postings on this.

I have gone through the process in the document FAQ_MSWIN and installed a large number of the Cygwin components, including the latest version of PostgreSQL from their site. However, when I try to initialise the Shared Memory daemon, 'ipc-daemon2', as per the document, my cygwin shell reports 'bash: ipc-daemon2: command not found'.
