Thread: Error in Installation 8.0RC1 on Windows XP

Hi,

A colleague reported getting this error while installing 8.0.0.rc-1 on a WinXP system.

"Failed to set permissions on the installed files. Please see the logfile in "C:\Program
Files\PostgreSQL\8.0.0.rc1\tmp\pgperm.log"

The logfile(pgperm.log) contents:
"No mapping between account names and security IDs was done."

Any clues as to how to fix this particular problem?

Thanks & Regards,
Mehul

Are you using a domain account or a local account? What are the domain/comp=
uter names and usernames?

In general, this means that the accuont creation either failed, or if it's =
a domain environment, hasn't replicated yet. Which is kind of weird, becaus=
e there is quite a bit of time between account creation and the setting of =
permissions.
