title: PostgreSQL database service
body: <p>I downloaded PostgreSQL from their site - <a href="http://www.postgresql.org/download/windows" rel="noreferrer">http://www.postgresql.org/download/windows</a></p>
  
  <p>However, I can't create a database from <strong>pgAdmin</strong> and get a message:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>could not connect to server:
    Connection refused (0x0000274D/10061)
    Is the server running on host
    "localhost" and accepting TCP/IP
    connections on port 5432? could not
    connect to server: Connection refused
    (0x0000274D/10061) Is the server
    running on host "localhost" and
    accepting TCP/IP connections on port
    5432?</p>

  <p>Do I have to create a windows service? How is it called? Do I have to install it separately?</p>
  
  <p><strong>EDITED</strong></p>
  
  <p>Let me explain myself. I am trying to run the service. I tried running postgres.exe from the command line but still it does not run.</p>
  
  <p>What could run the database?</p>
  
  <p><strong>EDITED</strong></p>
  
  <p>The problem was with my installation file. I downloaded it again - and it worked well!</p>
