Hi! I got exactly the same error message in Windows 7 with installer postgresql-8.4.4-1-windows.exe.

I put mine in C:\postgreSQLdata . -- View this message in context: http://postgresql.1045698.n5.nabble.com/Installation-problem-The-database-cluster-initialization-failed-tp2130873p2805746.html Sent from the PostgreSQL - bugs mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
