hi guys,

I am having issues with pg_upgrade on Windows. I have posted a question on StackOverflow -- at http://stackoverflow.com/questions/34664236/pg-upgrade-on-windows-cannot-write-to-log-file-pg-upgrade-internal-log -- copied below for convenience:

I'm trying to run pg_upgrade on Windows, but I'm getting the error:

   cannot write to log file pg_upgrade_internal.log Failure, exiting

I saw a similar question for Linux at23216734 <http://stackoverflow.com/questions/23216734/cannot-write-to-log-file-pg-upgrade-internal-log-when-upgrading-from-postgresq>which explains that the issue is with permissions, but it doesn't help with Windows as I do not have a user named|postgres|

Same goes for thepg_upgrade docs <http://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/pgupgrade.html>, which mention a|postgres|user:

   RUNAS /USER:postgres "CMD.EXE"

But again, I do not have such a user, and am trying to run this command as Administrator so I don't understand why I would have no permission. I even tried to do

|RUNAS /USER:Administrator "CMD.EXE"|

And run pg_upgrade in the new command prompt, but am getting the same error.

Also, I am not sure which directory needs permissions? Where is the process trying to write|pg_upgrade_internal.log|to?

any ideas?  TIA!
