RE: Re: Re: BUG #15769: The database cluster intialisation failed. - Mailing list pgsql-bugs
I tried running the installer from an admin command prompt with "--enable_acledit 1" but I still get the “database cluster intialisation failed” error. See details below from the new bitrock-installer.log file.
The database cluster will be initialized with locale "English_United States.1252".
The default text search configuration will be set to "english".
Data page checksums are disabled.

Hi,
I'm not sure but the error may be because of insufficient ACLs on the installation directory. Could you try launching the installer on the command prompt with "--enable_acledit 1" option and check if this fixes the issue?

There's not much we can do without additional info - we don't know what exactly failed and why. Try digging in the windows system log, for example. I believe there should be a log file from the installer in %TEMP% so maybe there's more info in it.
