I'm trying to install postgresql on windows XP. I did follow the documentation, and installed ipc-deamon (cygipc). I'm using ipc-daemon 1.13-2
I have a problem getting the ipc-deamon to work. When I run ipc-daemon --install-as-service, it doesn't want to start. When I use cygrunsrv and tell that the args are --service. In that case it runs for about 5 seconds and then dies and I can't find a reason. If I then change the args to --service --debug-level=2, it seems to stay running. If I then try my initdb, it hangs itself creating the template1 database, like in case the ipc-daemon isn't running. Note that the documentation says that you have to run initdb before you start the ipc-daemon service, but I thought that that is wrong and initdb requires the service too. I've also tried just running "ipc-daemon &", but that didn't seem to help either, it always hangs creating the database. Anybody seen this problem before, and now how to get it to work?
