Re: problem with ipc-daemon2 start as a service

Hi,

the IPC daemon should be started with the following commands:

ipc-daemon2.exe --install-as-service

net start "cygwin ipc daemon 2"

The first installs it as a service, the 2nd makes sure the service runs. So
unless you configure the service to start automatically, then after
installation you only need the 2nd command to run the IPC daemon. And if you
start the service automatically, you don't have to worry about it anymore at
all.

regards,

--Tim

Subject: [CYGWIN] problem with ipc-daemon2 start as a service

Hi,

I've build from sources postgresql 7.4.1 with the same ./configure command
as described in this guide:

http://www.tishler.net/jason/software/postgresql/postgresql-7.4.1.README

This is what I get whenever I try to launch ipc-daemon2:

cray(at)lavieenrose ~
$ cygrunsrv -S ipc-daemon2
cygrunsrv: Error starting a service: QueryServiceStatus: Win32 error 1062:

I have already tryed to do the chmod thing, changed nothing.
Also I don't have any logs in /var/log/

But if I don't use ipc-daemon2 as a service then when I run step 8 I get
this:
<log>

postgres(at)lavieenrose /usr/share/postgresql
$ initdb -D ./data/
The files belonging to this database system will be owned by user
"postgres".
This user must also own the server process.

The database cluster will be initialized with locale C.

DETAIL: Failed system call was shmget(key=1, size=1081344, 03600).
HINT: This error usually means that PostgreSQL's request for a
shared memory se
gment exceeded available memory or swap space. To reduce the request
size (curre
ntly 1081344 bytes), reduce PostgreSQL's shared_buffers parameter
(currently 50)
and/or its max_connections parameter (currently 10).
The PostgreSQL documentation contains more information about shared

ry configuration.
