Hi, I am trying to install PostgreSQL on Windows Vista 32bit, I have deactivated UAC and the only kind of Firewall I have is Avast Home. I am installing postgresql-8.3.6-2.zip, have also tried the 8.3.5.1. I am installing with everything as standard.
During installation, during Activating Procedural Languages I get the error : "Failed to connect to the database. Procedural languages files are installed, but are not activated in any databased. Could not connect to server: (0x0000274D/10061) Is the server running on host "127.0.0.1" and accepting TCP/IP connections on port 5432?" And during Activating contrib modules, error: "Failed to connect to the 'template1' database.Contrib files are installed, but are not activated in any databased.Could not connect to server: (0x0000274D/10061) Is the server running on host "127.0.0.1" and accepting TCP/IP connections on port 5432?" Then PostgreSQL get "successfully" installed on my system. But when I try to connect the default database or creating a new, it won't connect, and gives me the same error (0x0000274D/10061). I really don't have a clue, but since it won't install it's most likely something to do with my configutation, maybe I have deactivated some necessary services etc? Do you have an idea? Best Regards Joachim
