The ‘secondary logon’ service is not running

Asked By nadiajgoff 30 points N/A Posted on - 07/31/2012

Hi,

I find the following error message when I was installing Postgre SQL. 

Service check

The ‘secondary logon’ service is not running. This service is required for the installer to initialize the database.

Please start this service and try again

I need to get rid of this error. Please help me to solve this.

Thanks.

Hello Nadia,

The following work around should help you solve that problem:

1) Locate the "service" settings which are in the administrator tools and then disable the secondary logon. After that try installing Postre SQL again.

Everything should work well after that.

2) Alternatively you could try is the following: Navigate to the control panel on your computer and then open administrative tools, and thereafter services. You will need to locate the secondary logon service and the right click on it.

Start that service. After you have done that PostgreSQL should now install without bringing any errors.

Hope this helps.

Regards,

Carl
