hi
in my installation on cygwin/winXP there is exactly the same error. i
updated cygwin before installing postgres 7.4.1, so i don't know what more
i could update there. before i ran postgres 7.3.x without any troubles.
does anyone have an idea how to solve this?
any help or ideas are welcome.
thanks,
jean-pierre
