Hello,

I tried to install pgAgent on Windows XP Prof. SP2.

Documentation and help suggest:

  
  options:
    -u <user>
    -p <password>
    -d <displayname>
    -t <poll time interval in seconds (default 10)>

    -r <retry period after connection abort in seconds (>=10, default 30)>
    -l <logging verbosity (ERROR=0, WARNING=1, DEBUG=2, default 0)>

using

-u<space>username

or
-p<space>password

leads to
ERROR: Invalid command line argument

only without a space I can move on to "illegal account name"

Maybe it could be fixed in documentation or in command line parser (so that both accept a space between -u; or that documentation does not show a space between -u and username)

Dave,

C:\Programme\pgAdmin III\1.4>pgagent.exe INSTALL pgAgent -unasenbaer
ERROR: Der Kontenname ist unzulõssig oder nicht vorhanden, oder das Kennwort ist
 f³r den angegebenen Kontennamen ung³ltig.


C:\Programme\pgAdmin III\1.4>pgagent.exe INSTALL pgAgent -u nasenbaer
ERROR: Invalid command line argument

C:\Programme\pgAdmin III\1.4>

thats a cutout from my commandline.


"ERROR: Der Kontenname ist unzulõssig oder nicht vorhanden, oder das Kennwort ist
 f³r den angegebenen Kontennamen ung³ltig." is sth. like "wrong account name"
 

 
I am not able to supply a valid account name, esp. since I found no way to supply user@doman as a username ...

My workaround was to do install without user and password, and to change them in services.msc
 

Wow, thank you very very much, Dave!<br /><br /> think you can put that DOMAIN\user syntax into the documentation?<br
/><br/> Everytime I stumble upon I get mixed up if it is<br /><br /> user@domain<br /> or<br /> domain/user<br /> or
<br/> domain\user<br /> or <br /> \\domain\user<br /><br /> or even<br /> \\domain/user<br /><br /> ... so, to have it
inthat documentation could really help.<br /><br /> Thanks for all that gould work,<br /><br /> Harald<br /><br

Wow, thank you very very much, Dave!

Everytime I stumble upon I get mixed up if it is

user@domain
or
domain/user
or
domain\user
or
\\domain\user

or even
\\domain/user

... so, to have it in that documentation could really help.
