Обсуждение: Problem with cygipc __getreent

Hi. I read the docs and saw I needed cygipc to use PGsql under w32. I installed Cygipc using cygwin's setup program.
Whentrying to run ipctest, I get: 

"The procedure entry point __getreent could not be located in the dynamic link library cygwin.dll"

I googled for the error, found nothing. Found cygipc was depreciated and got a bunch of broken links to that effect.

Trying initdb anyway gives the error:
creating template1 database in /usr/local/pgsql/data/base/1... IpcSemaphoreCreat
e: semget(key=1, num=17, 03600) failed: Function not implemented

Tried on 2 machines, both Win2000, one has SP3
Cygipc 2.00-2
Cygwin 1.3.22-1
Postgresql 7.3.3-1

Thanks for the help. I thought this was appropriate here as pgsql is the only major user of cygipc as far as I can
tell.If not, please direct me elsewhere.

From previous messages, it seems that you are going to need Cygwin 1.5. But
that's where my knowledge starts and ends, 'cause I haven't tried cygipc2
yet.

Perhaps Jason can answer: Is a recompiled Postgres also required, or has
binary compatibility been maintained (seems unlikely, but possible)?

If so, no doubt a new release will be forthcoming shortly.

Cheers,
Claudio

I'm running the combo below (Cygwin 1.3.22-1, Postgresql 7.3.3-1)
successfully on my XP Home pc using cygipc 1.14-1, which I downloaded from
http://www.neuro.gatech.edu/users/cwilson/cygutils/cygipc/index.htm per
directions in the README
(if that link doesn't work, you can try
http://www.tishler.net/jason/software/cygipc/)

It's my understanding that cygipc's always been a kind of "off to the side"
kind of thing whose first cygwin incarnation is v2.0 (which is still under
construction).  In other words, you probably need to get and use 1.14-1
until 2.0 is in better shape.
