 tried calling the '-int' MSI but I get an error telling me "The installer
has encountered an unexpected error installing this package. This may
indicate a problem with the package. The error code is 2711."

This is my command line

msiexec /i postgresql-8.1.msi /qr INTERNALLAUNCH=1 ADDLOCAL=server,psql,docs
SERVICEDOMAIN="%COMPUTERNAME%" SERVICEPASSWORD="SecretWindowsPassword123"
SUPERPASSWORD="VerySecret" BASEDIR="c:\postgres"

Greg,

did you try to start the installer like

postgresql814.msi /qb ..... ???

That is rather doomed to failure.

You should try the

msiexec <whatever parms>

If you call msiexec without parms, it will give you a online help with all
the parms. Thoes /q<whatever> are from Microsoft, not from Magnus
:)

best wishes,

Harald
