Seems you are using Win7 or above environment.
You perhaps need to run the installer in administrator mode. An alternative way is to disable UAC.

Hi,

I am facing a problem when I try to install PostgresQL (version 9.2.1.). I get the following message:

"Unable to write inside TEMP environment variable path"

I need some help with this as I've read lots of posts about how to solve the problem and I have not succeed.

Here I forward to you the bitrock_installer text.

I'm not a computer expert, so I'll need detailed steps to solve the problem.

Thanks in advance
