Did you check the event viewer to see what the service startup error was?
Did you look at the log file PostgreSQL created to see if there were any
errors produced?
Do you have a virus scanner installed? If so,

Normally it works fine, but we have recently seen cases like yours
which we've been unable to reproduce. Noone has tried their own build
yet though, so hopefully you may be able to help us figure it out.

So...
If you're not a PostgreSQL Win32 port dev, and *don't know* what they're
up to as far as Vista, why respond to the Q? Or why respond "fix it
yourself" instead of "ask this guy" or "nobody here will know yet" or
"post your query on -ports or -hackers".
Precisely. My point is not that
t try to answer the question.

Well that may or may not be true, but isn't really relevant. What is
relevant is that *any* community user would have been told the *exact*
same thing. Regardless of OS.

1. what do those two things have in common?
2. what makes you think that "anyone who uses Windows" runs
PostgreSQL on it?
So what do you suggest? -core vote and "order" someone to do the work?
Postgresql.org isn't a business and doesn't employ any developer - we
only have the option of accepting patches from people/companies with
itches.
I don't suggest any chance to any structures in place, it's a purely PR
