[ADMIN] Problems with Postgresql under Windows XP pro

2003-01-11 Thread R. M. Besel
Hi Postges-Admins,

I have installed Postgresql-7-3-1 on two windows systems, a W2K-pro and 
a W-XP pro system. The installations have been completely identical, 
ipc-daemon and postmaster are installed as services with the following 
commands:

ipc-daemon:
cygrunsrv --install ipc-daemon --desc "CygWin IPC Daemon" --path 
/usr/local/bin/ipc-daemon --termsig INT --shutdown

postmaster:
cygrunsrv --install postmaster --desc "PostgreSQL Database Server" 
--path /usr/local/pgsql/bin/postmaster --args "-D /usr/local/pgsql/data 
-i" --dep ipc-daemon --termsig INT --user postgres --shutdown --stdout 
/pgsql.log --stderr /pgsql.err

Both services are successsfully running. The rest I did like described 
in the README and FAQ files (cygwin, user postgres, initdb ...). Every 
task was running without error.

Now the problem: with windows XP-pro it is not possible to get a 
connection to the database, when the user is not Administrator.

"psql -U postgres template1" is running seccessfully only as user 
"Administrator". Every other user gets a error message.

With W2K-pro everything works fine.

Is there anybody who has resolved this XP problem?

Thanks a lot,

Ralph

We don't have journalize yet, which we call point-in-time recovery.  We
plan to have it for 7.4.

[ADMIN] crypto?

2003-01-11 Thread Laurette Cisneros

Hi,

On Suse 8.0, I'm trying to compile postgresql 7.3.1.

configure gives the following error:
checking for inflate in -lz... yes
checking for CRYPTO_new_ex_data in -lcrypto... no
configure: error: library 'crypto' is required for OpenSSL

Yast2 doesn't show me any packages for crypto that can be installed.

Is it part of another package (OpenSSL is installed) or can I get it from
somewhere?

Thanks,
