Please see the FAQ on pginstaller.projects.postgresql.org, question 3.1. Please note that I have just updated this FAQ with the following, which may not be on the website yet: There is also an issue if you have installed cygwin, and the cygwin\bin directory is present in the system PATH variable. There are DLL files in the cygwin directory related to interpreted languages (TCL, perl, python) that contain bugs that can cause the installer or the installed version of PostgreSQL to either hang or crash. Remove the cygwin\bin directory from your path before running the installer! Unless you have some further information on which libraries would be missing? We have had no other reports of that... //Magnus ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 1: subscribe and unsubscribe commands go to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
