Thread: BUG #6006: Will not install
The following bug has been logged online: Bug reference: 6006 Logged by: Frank Brown Email address: Francis.Brown@agfa.com PostgreSQL version: 9.0.4 Win x64 Operating system: Windows 2008 Server x64 Description: Will not install Details: Initdb.exe - System Error Dialog box. The program can't start because libintl.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem. Tried 9.0.2 win x64 version with same results. I have been trying off and on for several days, googleing for similar issues. I have changed the rights on the L:\PostgreSQL and also L:\PostgreSQL\9.0\data to give user postgres full control. The libintl.dll does exist in the L:\PostgreSQL\9.0\bin folder. It also exists with in C:\Users\tatlas\AppData\Local\Temp\2\postgresql_installer during the install process. any help appreciated!

Can you see if that DLL is missing any dependencies using the depends tool?

I cannot read those files on the Mac I have with me. Can you just tell me if any of the dependent libraries are missing or unusable? They normally show up with a warning icon in the treeview. --=20 Dave Page Blog: http://pgsnake.blogspot.com Twitter: @pgsnake EnterpriseDB UK: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise PostgreSQL Company

Thanks. ieshims.dll shouldn't be a problem. Still not sure what would cause libintl loading to fail, though I have to wonder if it's something to do with your non-default installation path. Does it work if you install to the default directory? --=20 Dave Page Blog: http://pgsnake.blogspot.com Twitter: @pgsnake EnterpriseDB UK: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise PostgreSQL Company

What is the drive you were trying to use? How is it mounted, and what is the filesystem on it? --=20 Dave Page Blog: http://pgsnake.blogspot.com Twitter: @pgsnake EnterpriseDB UK: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise PostgreSQL Company
