Hello all, I have a windows postgres 9.0.1 installation which doesn't
start, and also doesn't log any information. The only evidence that
an attempt was made is in the event log with the following pair of
messages :

1. Waiting for server startup... 2. Timed out waiting for server
startup

I've tried to run postgres.exe from the command line to glean more
information, but it starts and stops without any output as well.

Did you try using pg_ctl instead (e.g. copy the commandline from the service 
definition)?

In most of the cases it's a permission issue with the data directory. Did you 
verify the postgres user (the one under which the service is started) has full 
access to the data directory?

Regards
Thomas
