The following bug has been logged online: Bug reference: 2934 Logged by: inifinity Email address: [EMAIL PROTECTED] PostgreSQL version: 8.2 Operating system: Windows XP Description: INSTALL FAILURE - failed to set permissions on the installed files Details:
I've been trying to install this from past two days and all I can see is a an error message towards the end of installation and a log file which I cannot acccess in my default C:\program files\postrgresql\8.2 the error says to check a log file perm.log but I cannot browse or delete the *\8.2 folder. says access denied. I have a admin user account and Im 100% sure I have given the right username/pwd in the first page of the installation with 'postgresql' as a superuser (and a diff pwd). Tried searching all forums but no result. I just hope someone sees this message and comes up with a solution rather than ask my cryptic questions in return Here is the postgresql-8.2.logfile (which I got after running again with detailed logging) Property(C): PrimaryVolumeSpaceAvailable = 0 Property(C): PrimaryVolumeSpaceRequired = 0 Property(C): PrimaryVolumeSpaceRemaining = 0 Property(C): INSTALLLEVEL = 1 === Logging stopped: 1/25/2007 11:23:40 === MSI (c) (44:40) [11:23:40:031]: Note: 1: 1708 MSI (c) (44:40) [11:23:40:031]: Note: 1: 2205 2: 3: Error MSI (c) (44:40) [11:23:40:031]: Note: 1: 2228 2: 3: Error 4: SELECT `Message` FROM `Error` WHERE `Error` = 1708 MSI (c) (44:40) [11:23:40:031]: Note: 1: 2205 2: 3: Error MSI (c) (44:40) [11:23:40:031]: Note: 1: 2228 2: 3: Error 4: SELECT `Message` FROM `Error` WHERE `Error` = 1709 MSI (c) (44:40) [11:23:40:031]: Product: PostgreSQL 8.2 -- Installation failed.
