I install PostgreSQL 8.3.3 in Windows XP, and set Path environment viarable to C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\8.3\bin, when I enter "create database mydb;" it successed, however when "createdb mydb;" told me syntax error. Dose the Path set wrong or I need to set other viarables?
It sounds as if you're issuing the commands from within psql - hence the standard SQL "create database...." works, but "createdb.." won't.
createdb is just a wrapper program that sends a "create database..." command to the server, so you need to run it from the Windows command-line.
