yes it is a know issue that under Windows 10 Creators update the postgresql instance of the developer doesn't start most of the time..

i just for now have a short cut/batch file "startdb.bat" that just does:

postgres_db\bin\pg_ctl start -D database -l postgres_db\postgres_log.txt


You can for now remove maybe the "nativeStart/shutdown" properties in the servoy.properties file
(because the shutdown always works, so you need to start the db everytime with a restart of the developer)

An application_server (not WAR) can't run NGClients, you need a WAR for that.

we investigated a bit more, still don't fully understand why it doesn't start up (but now and then it works fine suddenly under windows 10 creators update)

but if people can try the following to see if that fixes it for them:

make a startdb.bat file in the application_server dir (so besides the servoy.properties) with this content:

call postgres_db\bin\pg_ctl start -D database -l postgres_db\postgres_log.txt

then in the servoy.properties change the line of nativeStartupLauncher to:

nativeStartupLauncher=%%user.dir%%\\startdb.bat
