But Dusan, 


I don't think you can have a user see _only_ his own databases, can you? I think all can see all databases, if I'm not mistaken, even if they cannot connect to all. (Someone here will correct me, I'm sure!) Lou

Check if Secondary logon service is running. If it is not running, start it and try again to start PostgreSQL. It should work now.

We are trying to switch from Oracle 10g to Postgre but I am having few technical issues which I am listing here and I hope someone can help. 



Server Status: 

- I am installing “postgresql-9.0.2-1-windows.exe” package on Windows Server 2003 SP2 with 2 LAN Cards 

- The server is part of a domain and I am installing using the Administrator login 

- Before installation we have removed completely the AV software 



Installation: 

- We have chose the following directories during installation: 
D:\PostgreSQL\9.0 

D:\PostgreSQL\9.0\data 

- The PG user was created in the domain users with a pw that was accepted 

- During installation, The locale is English, United States and not to [Default locale] 

- During installation, starting the database server, this error shows 

Warning: Problem running post-install step. Installation may not complete correctly 
Failed to start the database server. 

I clicked OK and continue 

- After installation completion, the service "postgresql-9.0 - PostgreSQL Server 9.0" will fail. It is setup to start Automatically 
Services: could not start the postgresql-9.0 service on Local Computer. 

Error 1069: The service did not start due to a login failure. 

- When checking the service login, I found out the user to be .\postgres so browse for it in the domain and changed it to DOMAIN_NAME\postgres, re-start the service it worked 





Configuration Problems: 

1. In postgresql.conf file when I changed the listen address to one of my LAN card to channel all traffic through it by doing: listen_addresses = '192.168.1.212' instead of listen_addresses = '*', re-starting the service will not work, changing the entry back and re-starting the service will not work, changing the entry back and re-start the whole server will work and the service will start 



2. In pg_hba.conf I have the following entries: 
host all all 127.0.0.1/32 md5 

host all all 192.168.1.211/32 md5 

host all all 192.168.1.212/32 md5 

host all all 192.168.1.4/32 md5 



using PGAdmin from the server itself, I created 2 New login Role “1” and “2” , 2 Tablespace “1” and “2” as this 
D:\tablespace\1 

D:\tablespace\2 

which is next to the PG directory D:\PostgreSQL 

and had to gave permission to the user: DOMAIN_NAME\postgres to D:\tablespace directory 

then created the database “1” and “2” with the prospective user as owner and the tablespace 



Logging from the remote machine with IP: 192.168.1.4 using the user 1, I can see both 1 and 2 dbs 

however when I changed the pg_hba.conf to 

host 1 all 192.168.1.4/32 md5 

restarting the service, I can’t login at all. This entry does not work 



however; these entries will work: 

host all all 192.168.1.4/32 md5 

host all 1 192.168.1.4/32 md5 

But still can see all the dbs 

I need to have each user sees its own DB, how can I do that
