Hi,
I gave restricted permissions to the postgres user on the C: drive. After
doing this, I could run initdb without issue.
Something doesn't sit right with me with giving access to C: drive, but it
works. If anyone has any insights on what
this problem is/was and how I can get around it without granting access to C:,
I would appreciate it.
Well, read-only permissions on C: should be alright (so long as it
doesn't imply read-only on the folders below).
It might be possible to remove the permissions after installation,
although I've never tried.
If it really concerns you, you could repartition and install just
PostgreSQL on drive D: (or whatever).
