The plot thickens or I spoke too soon.
Although initdb works, I am getting the following errors when I connect
to postmaster:
# server side
$ postmaster
DEBUG: database system was shut down at 2001-04-18 15:12:29
DEBUG: CheckPoint record at (0, 1563376)
DEBUG: Redo record at (0, 1563376); Undo record at (0, 0); Shutdown TRUE
DEBUG: NextTransactionId: 619; NextOid: 18720
DEBUG: database system is in production state
pq_flush: send() failed: The connection was aborted
pq_recvbuf: recv() failed: errno ESHUTDOWN triggered
# client side
$ psql -l
psql: pqReadData() -- backend closed the channel unexpectedly.
This probably means the backend terminated abnormally
before or while processing the request.
The Cygwin snapshot from 4/13/2001 works but the one from 4/14/2001
doesn't. I'm trying to determine why. I will report back when I get
more information.
If anyone wants to help, please jump in.
Thanks,
Jason
