no connection to server

- running Postgresql 8.0 beta1 from the binary MSI Installer,
and

- running Postgresql 8.0 beta2-dev2 from the binary MSI Installer,

Windows XP Professional Sevice Pack 2 (and Service Pack 1 before)

Stopped the running service, started Postgresql from the command line
to get some debugging output:

C:\Programme\PostgreSQL\8.0-beta1\bin>postmaster.exe -i

this message gets repeated without something else happening ... no

LOG:  incomplete startup packet
LOG:  could not receive data from client: Ein Vorgang bezog sich auf ein

This gets printed out anytime I try to connect - no matter if from
psql or from pgadmin

on the client side:
C:\Programme\PostgreSQL\8.0-beta1\bin>psql -h localhost
psql: server closed the connection unexpectedly
       This probably means the server terminated abnormally
       before or while processing the request.

Any ideas what could be wrong? Googling led to around 3 people with
the same problem, but no solution yet.

- I did deactivate Antivir-Software from H+B Edv
- I did deactivate the windows firewall
- with the activated firewall I tried an exception for Port 5432 /
Postgresql

- I tried runnig psql as a service AND as a command Line Application
- Postgres runs as "postgres" User which was created by the msi-installer

- I checked via control-panel that the service is running when using the
Service
- LOG gets written each time I try to connect

if I deactivate the stats collector, this message "disappears" [LOG: 
statistics collector process (PID 2700) was terminated by signal 1
LOG:  select() failed in statistics collector: Ein Vorgang bezog sich auf
ein Ob
jekt, das kein Socket ist.
] (it does not appear again)

Any Ideas?
