PostgreSQL version: 9.2.2
Operating system: Windows 7 =
Description: =
We are facing an issue with Postgres Windows installer (version 9.2.2). =
In some machines we find that the installer works, in other machines it
fails and =
when checking the logs, we find that the script "initcluster" failed. =
We are installing Postgres in the default directory (i.e. c:\program files
(x86)\PostgreSQL), and =
the data directory under "c:\ProgramData". =
After long hours of debugging in the machines where it fails we found the
problem in the following =
line of the scripts "strInitdbPass =3D strInstallDir & "\" &
objFso.GetTempName", which is actually =
trying to save the password file under the installation directory (i.e.
c:\program files (x86)\PostgreSQL) =
, which failed with "Permission denied" error, when changing this line to
point to another directory =
the script worked. =
We tried to run the installer as "Local Administrator", but that also didn't
fix the issue.
What would be the solution for this issue?
