Re: [BUGS] BUG #2343: Silent installers fails

[Support FireDigit]

it works when run manually, it looks like the combination NSIS installer and the MSI installer doesn't work very well. I did what you suggested, I created a user before launching the installer and the installer failed this time with the following error. User "some binary signs"4/"some binary signs" could not be found. replace "some binary signs" with some binary signs. The user was correctly created with the right permissions and the silent installer command was: msiexec /i C:\hsm\source\pgsql\postgresql-8.1-int.msi /qr INTERNALLAUNCH=1 ADDLOCAL=server,psql,pgadmin SERVICEDOMAIN=%COMPUTERNAME% SERVICEACCOUNT=fd202016fd SERVICEPASSWORD=fd_pgsql SUPERUSER=root SUPERPASSWORD=fd_hsm PERMITREMOTE=1 ENCODING=UTF8 CREATESERVICEUSER=0 BASEDIR=C:\hsm\postgres Anton Magnus Hagander wrote: Bug reference: 2343 Logged by: Anton Email address: [EMAIL PROTECTED] PostgreSQL version: 8.1.2 Operating system: Windows XP Description: Silent installers fails Details: Hi All, When the installer creates the user account, I get the following error: Internal Account lookup failure No mapping between account names and security ID's was done.

The user account "fd202016fd" specified was created. Does it work if you run it manually? Any idea what could cause this and what could be a workaround? Not really, it shouldn't normally happens. It seems it's created, but the process that created it can't see it because of some delay somewhere. A workaround is to create the account before you launch the installer. //Magnus
