I've downloaded & installed the latest cygwin package. I installed cygipc, and compiled postgres. Everything looked good with the build. I start ipc-daemon, and the postmaster with "Postmaster -i -D ../data". This all works fine too. When I try to create the database using "createdb -hlocalhost testdb", I get the following error: pq_flush: send() failed: Invalid argument pq_recvbuf: recv() failed: The descriptor is a file, not a socket psql: pqReadData() -- backend closed the channel unexpectedly. This probably means the backend terminated abnormally before or while processing the request. createdb: database creation failed I've looked all over the newsgroup archives, and I haven't been able to find a solution. Can anybody offer help? Thanks, Kian Parsee __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo! Auctions - buy the things you want at great prices http://auctions.yahoo.com/
