- Delete the file “postmaster.pid”
- Open Task Manager
- Right click the column header (where it states name CPU memory etc)
- Tick the option “Command Line”
- Find in the process list the postgres.exe that has the command line including the 9.4 postgres directory and the switch below:
–D C:\TaxCalcHub\PostgreSQL\9.4\data
- End this process
- Open services.msc and restart the service.
This should now start the service and the disco installer should finish. IF Postgres did not start recheck the process list for any OTHER 9.4 Postgres.exe processes and end them.
