Re: pg8 beta3 Win32: after dropping db directory is not removed

Hi,

Most (but not all) of the time when I drop a database I receive the
following warning:

WARNING: could not remove database directory "c:/program
files/PostgreSQL/8.0.0-beta3-dev1/data/base/XXXXX"

Where XXXXX is the directory name of for the database being
dropped. It's
not a really big deal, since all but one of the data files are
removed, and
if the postmaster service is stopped, the directory and last
file can be
removed.

Is this a bug?

Yes, this looks like a known issue that is fixed in current CVS, but not
in any of the released betas.

(By the way, there is a beta-4 out there to test. it doesn't contain
this fix, but several others are in there)

TIP 2: you can get off all lists at once with the unregister command
(send "unregister YourEmailAddressHere" to majordomo (AT) postgresql (DOT) org)
