Hi all I've been on this problem for two days! Would seriously appreciate some suggestions. My server went down unexpectedly, and since restarting, the Postgres db won't come back on. I'm running PostgreSQL8.1 on Windows Server 2003 with DSpace 1.4.2 I'm getting various error messages: Server doesn't listen The server doesn't accept connections: the connection library reports could not connect to server: Connection refused (0x0000274D/10061) Is the server running on host "127.0.0.1" and accepting TCP/IP connections on port 5432? This is when trying to open the db in pgAdminIII.
I don't think its a TCP/IP problem though, because I get the problem when working on the server (that's a guess). "Is postmaster running?" pg_ctl: PID file "C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\8.1\data\postmaster.pid" does not exist. Is postmaster running? I get this when trying pg_ctl command. So naturally I check to see if the postmaster is running. It is not, I cant get it on either because it tells me (when starting it as a restricted user): Error 5: Access denied I have totally no clue where the problem lies. Firewall is off, Postgres exceptions is on on the right port anyway... Out of ideas. Out of steam. PPLLEEAASSEE apply your genius/knowledge/experience to my problem, because I have none.
