Dear friends

I'm not able to install postgresql on my Windows Machine:


RDBMS Version: 8.0.0 beta2-2dev
OS: Windows 2k - all patches installed (up to date)

After klicking o.k. in the window that displays the Release Notes,
installation abords with the following message:

"Installation ended prematurely because of an error"


Ok. That's it. :-)
Please try too improve such errormessages, it would enormous help to find
an error.

Thanks for postgresql

This is a known issue in the beta2 installer. I'm working on this right
now, and I think I have tracked down the location of the problem. We'lll
put out a new version of the installer as soon as it's fixed.
