The following bug has been logged online: Bug reference: 4226 Logged by: Austin Lee Email address: [EMAIL PROTECTED] PostgreSQL version: 8.2.7 Operating system: Win2k3R2SP2 Description: PG_CTL fails to strip admin rights before running postgres Details:
I am trying to run pg_ctl.exe as admin when I get this error. "FATAL: postgres: could not locate matching postgres executable." I know there was a fix in 8.2.7 to fix this permission admin rights issue. I've observed the fix in initdb.exe. In 8.2.1 initdb fails because it can't find postgres. In 8.2.7 initdb success. I assumed pg_ctl would have the same behaivor since I see the same calls to AddUserDacl that I saw for initdb. However, I am still coming up error for pg_ctl which I believe might be a windows permission issue. -- Sent via pgsql-bugs mailing list (pgsql-bugs@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-bugs
