Postgresql installation problems.

- Subject: Postgresql installation problems.
I'm trying to install postgresql on windows XP. I did follow the
documentation, and installed ipc-deamon (cygipc). I'm using
ipc-daemon 1.13-2
I have a problem getting the ipc-deamon to work. When I run
ipc-daemon --install-as-service, it doesn't want to start.
When I use cygrunsrv and tell that the args are --service. In
that case it runs for about 5 seconds and then dies and I can't
find a reason.
If I then change the args to --service --debug-level=2, it seems
to stay running.
If I then try my initdb, it hangs itself creating the template1
database, like in case the ipc-daemon isn't running.
Note that the documentation says that you have to run initdb
before you start the ipc-daemon service, but I thought that that
is wrong and initdb requires the service too.
I've also tried just running "ipc-daemon &", but that didn't seem
to help either, it always hangs creating the database.
Anybody seen this problem before, and now how to get it to work?
Kurt
