The following bug has been logged online: Bug reference: 3294 Logged by: Jason Email address: [EMAIL PROTECTED] PostgreSQL version: 8.2.4-1 Operating system: Windows XP Professional Description: PostgreSQL Setting permissions for folders during installation then Crashing Details:
Running the installation, everything works fine until it starts copying files. Then it reaches a fatal error, and says: Failed to set permissions on the installed files. Please see the logfile in 'C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\8.2\tmp\pgperm.log'. 8.2 then become a folder that I as administrator of the system do not have permissions to access. I can't get into the folder, I can't delete the folder. I can't do anything to it. The installer then rolls back and quits. I've tried this 3 times, and now have 3 different folders that I can't delete. Please help. --Jason ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 2: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
