I just read an SQL book, so I am very new to Prgramming. Heres my problem: after installing (and installing the DLL files for win95) i was able to open correctly. I also created data files with initdb comand. (though createdb says im not able to create a database because of my connection to the server failed) So, now, i am trying to start postmaster here is my output sucess. You can now start the database server using: /usr/sbin/postmaster -D /usr/local/pgsql/data or /usr/sbin/pg_ctl -D /usr/local/pgsql/data -l logfile start I tryed both here is my error: grocky AT pur~ $ /usr/sbin/pg_ctl -D /usr/local/pgsql/data -l logfile start postmaster starting grocky AT pur~ $ /usr/sbin/pg_ctl -D /usr/local/pgsql/data -l logfile start 58 [main] postm aster 311205 child_info::sync: wait failed, pid 384005, Win32 eroor 0 2340 [main] postmaster 311205 fork: child 384005 - died waiting for dll loading; error 11 Ok is this somthing to do with my DLL files right? what can i do to fix this?? thanks so much amy -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
