Re: BUG #13839: command line restart server fail

Dear Alex,
Thanks for your positive response.
This happens when localhost is used in pg_hba.conf and stated command stuck at last line until I press enter.

When I see windows services postgres service is stopped.Further more trying to connect with pgAdmin I receive connectivity error.

Best Regards,
Ali Raza

Hello,
I'm not sure what makes you believe the service has failed to start, at least the output above suggests otherwise. Did you check the contents of "...\data\pg_log" directory?
