Installation Error

Date:
While installing postgreSQL 7.4.5 on unixware.
I encounter this error while trying to create database

"creating template1 database in /usr/local/pgsql/data/base/...FATAL: XX000
FATAL LOCATION initialize GUOptions,guc.c 1867
initdb failed"

What could be the possible solution to this problem

Regards

Donald

Could we see a more accurate copy of the error message please?
You left out the interesting parts (like which variable was being
initialized and to what).
