Hi there, I try to use WAL support for backup/recovery on Windows.
I applied the procedures from PostgreSQL 8.2.3 Documentation / 23.3.3. Recovering using a Continuous Archive Backup. I set the following archive commands: - archive_command = 'copy "%p" "D:/Program Files/PostgreSQL/8.2/test_sabin/%f"' #in postgresql.conf - restore_command = 'copy "D:/Program Files/PostgreSQL/8.2/test_sabin/%f" "%p"' #in recovery.conf At the step 8, I start Postgresql Windows service. It starts, work about 30 seconds, then silently stops. In the event viewer I found just one message: 'The PostgreSQL Database Server 8.2 service entered the stopped state'. I found no log in ../data/pg_log/, and my recovery.conf file is not renamed to 'recovery.done'. What's happen ?
