The following bug has been logged online:
Bug reference: 3919
Logged by: Sergey
Email address: d@voteland.ru
PostgreSQL version: 8.3RC2
Operating system: Windows 2003 SP2
Description: Service Privileges Bug
Details:
Postgre can't run under restricted user's account. Even if:
1) All 'service' rights to that account granted;
2) All 'disk' rights also granted (checked very carefully, '/data' in full
access, other dirs read and execute);
The error is 'Error 5 : Access denied'.
Changing the user to 'Local Service' solves the issue.
p.s.
Postgre 8.2 on the same machine under restricted user with same priveleges
running quite.
