Thread: Help-me (step for step) please....IpcSemaphoreCreate
Hello,
I am trying to install PostgreSQL on Windows using Cygwin and am having some troubles I am hoping someone at Cygwin can help me with.
I downloaded the Base portion of the install of Cygwin, along with PostgresSQL, nothing more. I then, ran Cygwin and from the bash shell executed the command 'initdb'. I received the following error....
$ initdb -D /data
The files belonging to this database system will be owned by user "oracle".
This user must also own the server process.
creating directory /data... ok
creating directory /data/base... ok
creating directory /data/global... ok
creating directory /data/pg_xlog... ok
creating directory /data/pg_clog... ok
creating template1 database in /data/base/1... IpcSemaphoreCreate: semget(key=1,
num=17, 03600) failed: Function not implemented
initdb failed.
Removing /data.
I am thinking perhaps I need to install other Cygwin components, but not sure what, or if that's even the issue at all.
