But, when i alter postgresql.conf adding the stats_starts_collector = on ( or even false, which bugs me to the end) the service starts and immedeately stops. If I revert the change, service works again. The event log is clear, the pg_log is empty. My login is local admin, and due to restrictions in environment, i currently cannot runas /user:postgres posmaster.exe to retrieve the stderr or stdout of postgres. So the questions: 1) Is it really connected to stats collector? [ the part in brackets makes me think it's not] 2) Maybe, there is a forsaken way for admin user to run postgres? 3) How to proceed? 4) Is there a way to syntax check .conf? (I know that I can send the .conf home and run postgres there, but don't like this option) Thanks in advance, Vladimir. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Postgres-windows-service-shutdowns-after-start-tp18244024p18244024.html Sent from the PostgreSQL - admin mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
