Postgres 8.3 fails to restart as a service on VMS and Server 2003
- by Woot4Moo
Currently I am experiencing an issue with a Postgres 8.3 install wherein after a system restart a service is unable. The error message is as follows:
waiting for server to start...Access is denied. ............................................................could not start server
The command being executed is
pg_ctl.exe start -N "MyService" -D "C:\MyData"
I am logged in and executing this as an administrator. The issue originally happened after uninstalling and reinstalling postgres, the /data directory was removed as well.
