Dear Mr. Fuhr,
Thank you for prompt follow up.
Fitst of all, I need to remind you that presently we are working on Windows
OS (Windows XP-Professional). The errors occured when installing PostgreSQL
on the above OS.
Upon research I found out that I "MAY" require to install "Cygwin" first and
then install PostgreSQL via its environment. Is this correct?
It depends on which PostgreSQL installer you are using. The only way to run an official release of PostgreSQL under Windows, prior to version 8, was to run it under Cygwin. Version 8 (which is scheduled for a stable release version within the next few days) is capable of running natively under Windows, without the use of Cygwin.
Before, getting to other details, I want to be sure which way to go.
a. Can PostgreSQL be installed on Windows? Which version of Windows?
Yes, under Windows NT, 2000, or XP.
b. What is the deal with "Cygwin"? Do we need it at all or not?
Cygwin is an open-source project to provide a simulated UNIX-like environment under Windows. For further details, see the project's web site at http://www.cygwin.com/
Awaiting your advise, I remain.
Regards, Elnaz

How are you creating the database, and is that the operation that fails or do you get the error when doing something after you've created the database? Please copy & paste the exact commands you're running and the output.
What version of the client are you running? The startup banner should say, or you can run "psql --version" (or "createdb --version" if that's what you're running).
What version of the server are you running? You can find out by executing the query "SELECT version();".
As I look for solving this problem I find out that I should add information_schema to the shema search path. but I don't kow how!
Let's find out what the problem is before attempting a solution that may or may not be appropriate or necessary.
