Description: Postgressql database server 8.3 service fails to start
(NTSTATUS code exception 0xC000000D )
Details:

Hi,

I have a problem with a postgresql 8.3 server running on Windows 2003 R2,
the postgresql database server 8.3 service stops instantly after starting
the service from windows services console.

Below are the few pg_log snippets

2008-12-17 19:35:54 IST FATAL: the database system is starting up
2008-12-17 19:36:56 IST LOG: loaded library
"$libdir/plugins/plugin_debugger.dll"
2008-12-17 19:36:56 IST FATAL: the database system is starting up
2008-12-17 19:37:20 IST LOG: startup process (PID 2872) was terminated by
exception 0xC000000D
2008-12-17 19:37:20 IST HINT: See C include file "ntstatus.h" for a
description of the hexadecimal value.
2008-12-17 19:37:20 IST LOG: aborting startup due to startup process
failure

Checked in ntstatus.h for the hexadecimal 0xC000000D which implies to
INVALID PARAMETER.

Any help would be highly appreciated.

Thanks and Regards
