Nope, no anti-virus and no firewall (other then the box that fronts my
home-network to the outside world).

Hi,
I've installed PostgreSQL 8.1-beta2 as a service on my
Windows-XP box.
It runs fine but I get repeated messages like this in the log:
2005-09-29 00:41:09 FATAL: could not duplicate socket
1880 for use in backend: error code 10038
and for each message printed, a new postgres process is
created. To make things worse, those processes do not die
when I stop the service.
I use sysinternals tcpview to monitor my sockets. I know that
no other process is using 1880. Each started postgres process
will occupy two, seemingly random ports that apparently form
a loop somehow. This is a typical entry:
<non-existent>:3136 TCP 127.0.0.1:1554
127.0.0.1:1555 ESTABLISHED
<non-existent>:3136 TCP 127.0.0.1:1555
127.0.0.1:1554 ESTABLISHED
The weird thing is that there is no process with pid 3136
(hence the name <non-existent>). There is a postgres process
with another pid in my process listing. If I kill that, the
<non-existstent> entries go away.
Looks like pid 3136 is talking to itself. A pipe() followed
by failure to start the new process perhaps?
Do you by any chance run any antivirus or firewall software? If so, can
you try removing it (note! actual uninstall, not just disabling it!)
