The following bug has been logged online: Bug reference: 4770 Logged by: Quincy Email address: qj_qwe...@hotmail.com PostgreSQL version: 8.3.7 Operating system: Windows Vista Description: Error initializing slon in command line and hence running Slony Details:
Hello everyone, I tried to find a solution for a few days now on an error that kept occuring after trying to install & run slony-1 immediately after installing postgres DB system. What kept on happening after installing slony-1 via the stackbuilder and then testing the slon service in command line was an error containing the following: "The procedure entry point libiconv_set_relocation_prefix could not be located in the dynamic link library libiconv-2.dll". Windows log had this in the error report: libiconv-2.dll!libiconv_set_relocation_prefix It took a while to realise that when I install slony-1, it creates and overwrites the file libiconv -2.dll found in the bin of the postgres installation folder. The only difference between the files are their size & date created. What I found as a work around was to first stop the posgres service, then use the libiconv-2.dll (947kb) originally installed by postgres and by either renaming or moving that file to then overwrite the libiconv-2.dll created by the slony installation. Meaning, the file that should remain for everything to work is the original libiconv-2.dll (947kb) created by the postgres installation. If this error was already addressed please let me know as I really was trying to find a solution to the above problem and could not find one suitable. -- Sent via pgsql-bugs mailing list (pgsql-bugs@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-bugs
