The following bug has been logged online: Bug reference: 5587 Logged by: Mike Parfitt Email address: m_parf...@hotmail.com PostgreSQL version: 8.4.4.1 Operating system: Windows XP SP3 Description: Installer non-default file association problem Details:
When the installer halts showing "Initialising the database cluster (this may take a few minutes)" message it may be because that PC has a non-default .bat file association. In my case, I used Process Explorer and looked at the other processes it had spawned :- postgresql-8.4.4-1-windows.exe cscript.exe UEDIT32.exe UEDIT32.EXE (UltraEdit) is my text editor of choice. Either the installer should test whether the .bat file association is going to start the right program, or the right program should be included in the parameter passed to the .Run function. -- Sent via pgsql-bugs mailing list (pgsql-bugs@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-bugs
