Copyright and bundling the installer - Mailing list pgsql-general

Hi, I wrote a WIX bootstrapper to download "postgresql-9.6.13-1-windows-x64.exe" / "pgadmin4-4.6-x86.exe" and to install it from the bootstrapper, and it looks like this:

However, when I ran the bootstrapper, it failed with the following errors during postgresql exe download (the same error also occurred for pgadmin4 exe):

 

  Prompt for source of package: PostGres, payload: PostGres, path: C:\3rd_party\\postgresql-9.6.13-1-windows-x64.exe

Here is how I authored the bootstrapper using WIX:

If I do not download but statically include those EXE's to the bundle, it works fine.

I've been search for the cause for a couple days but no luck. Did anyone approach this way and successfully downloaded and continued to install?

Another question:

Due to this error, I am think to embed those EXE's to the bootstrapper, but I do not know if it is against licensing policy.

Is it okay to do it?

 

Thanks.
