Hi Peter,
We tried to reproduce this issue but could not do so. We have tried both the cases but both were not reproducible. Can you please provide more information which can help us in reproducing the issue,
Thanks,

Subject: [GENERAL] PostgreSQL 9.0 (x86-64) and Windows 7 (x86-64) -
Unable to install
To: pgsql-general@postgresql.org
I cannot install PostgreSQL 9.0 (x86-64) under Windows 7 (x86-64). The
installer fails right after starting the installation process with the
message:
"An error occurred executing the Microsoft VC++ runtime installer".
I am using the installer from EnterpriseDB
http://www.enterprisedb.com/products/pgdownload.do. Installation file
is postgresql-9.0.0-1-windows_x64.exe.
Unfortunately there is no %TEMP%\install-postgresql.log.
When scanning the mailing lists under
http://www.postgresql.org/community/lists/ and under
http://forums.enterprisedb.com/forums/show/9.page I can see that this
error has been described for several times with PostgreSQL 8.3 and 8.4
under different Windows variants. A common hint was to activate the
Windos Scripting Host (WSH) allthough it obviously does not help in
all cases. On my machine the WSH is activated and working.
Under
http://www.enterprisedb.com/learning/pginst_guide.do#troubleshooting
you can read about the command line options of the EnterpriseDB
PostgreSQL Installer. An attempt with "--install_runtimes 0" fails again
but with the different error message:
"Unknown error while running C:\Users\Administrator\Lokale
Einstellungen\postgres_installer\getlocales.exe"
Again there is no %TEMP%\install-postgresql.log.
As the second message is suggesting I am working as local
Administrator while installing PostgreSQL.
Maybe it is worth to be mentioned that I have installed Microsoft
Visual Studio 2008 Pro DE. Therefore the installation of the VC++
runtime should not be neccessary.
I am using now MySQL for serveral years and would like to compare it
with a current PostgreSQL version. The installation of PostgreSQL
under Windows is really disappointing but the same worked without
problems under Linux x86-64 (openSUSE 11.0). Under Linux I have used
the EnterpriseDB Installer of PostgreSQL 9.0 (x86-64) as well. The
installation file is postgresql-9.0.0-1-linux-x64.bin.
Is this problem already known and is there a solution for it?
