Ok, I tried it. It got wierder, though.
Created "Guest" account. Started server in Cygwin
session using "My User Name" account. Switched over
to Guest account (still logged in under my user name
and server still running -- verified this). Ran
command:
psql -U Guest template1
Got message:
psql: FATAL: user "Guest" does not exist
Ran command:
psql -U "My User Name" template1
I got the psql # prompt but when I type \h for help
it hangs. Anything I did hung. Contol-C'd out.
Ran command:
createdb -U "Guest" mydb
Same "user Guest does not exist" message.
Ran command:
createdb -U "My User Name" mydb
Hangs.
Very strange. I'm going to try uninstalling and
reinstalling everything. Any other suggestions?
thanks,
Bill
