Hi, Hackers! Nowadays, I always got problem about postgresql windows service. I find, postgresql usually use the following command to register windows services: /"D:\Program Files (x86)\PostgreSQL\9.4\bin\pg_ctl.exe" runservice -N "postgresql-9.4" -D "D:\Program Files (x86)\PostgreSQL\9.4\data" -w/ But this command always failed, beacause of user privilege, just as a topic described: http://postgresql.nabble.com/pg-ctl-could-not-start-service-quot-pgsql-8-2-quot-error-code-1063-td1880801.html#a1880802 While 'pg_ctl start -D ../data' works well, why not to use this command to register postgresql windows service? why to use 'pg_ctl runservice -N "psql" -D ".../data"' ? This is really confused me when I use postgresql in windows.
Hope to hear from you! Regards!
