Bug reference:      6371
Logged by:          Vitaly
Email address:      vitaly83@gmail.com
PostgreSQL version: 9.1.2
Operating system:   Windows 7 x86
Description:=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20

Installation stops after "Initialising the database..." without any alerts
or other actions - just show message "Initialising the database...". I
checked the data directory and all need files was there.
But no account for postgres user.
I waited for a long time. Then I broke installation.
I've already tried to install with administrator account. No differernce.

However, there is no such bug with v9.0.6.

Thank you.

Hmm, maybe initdb is hanging?  Is there an installer log someplace,
perhaps in your temp directory?

Could you run:

initdb -d -D some_pathname

...and capture the output?
