[GENERAL] postgresql-9.0 service starting problem
Hi, I am using Windows XP. When I have installed PostgreSQL 9.0.3, the service didn't start automatically. In the "Computer Management" I explicitly start "postgresql-9.0" service, the service didn't start and following message displayed "The postgresql-9.0 service on Local Computer started and then stopped. Some services stop automatically if they have no work to do, for example, the Performance Logs and Alerts Service" What is the problem and How to solve it? Thanks and Regards kalai

Sounds like there was a problem look in the Postgres log, in the Windows event log, or both.

Start the eventview application and check for entries in the application log.

Thanks to all. I found the wrong configuration in pg_hba.conf. The problem is solved.
