Solutions:
1. Reboot your computer
2. If that doesn't help look for the hidden system file postmaster.pid in the postgresql data folder, delete it and reboot your computer again.
3. Check the postgresql service in the windows services (control panel->administration). Sometimes it helps to change the Logon As.. to "local system account"
4. Check our FAQ:

Cheers for that but still not working.

I've even checked out what morny put in his sticky above and still nothing.

Anymore ideas??

This is usually a firewall or windows update issue.

First try to reboot.

If no help, try this:

Start > Programs > PostgreSQL > 8.x > Stop Service

Start > Programs > PostgreSQL > 8.x > Start Service

If that doesnt help delete the \postgresql\8.x\data\postmaster.pid file, if you see it. And reboot.


If that doesn't help you will have to reinstall PostgreSQL completely.

Reinstalling PostgreSQL seems to be the best options. Download it from PostgreSQL: The world's most advanced open source database (http://www.postgresql.org).

Which error do you get exactly when you run the 8.4.7 installer from PostgreSQL: The world's most advanced open source database (http://www.postgresql.org?)
