Speaking of the MSI installer, it basicly sucks, and I can't understant why all the win32 Postgres software uses it. IMHO the best open source Installer available is Inno Setup. http://www.jrsoftware.org/isinfo.php It can do everything that MSI can do and then some. I think it's a shame that PG

2004-11-26 Thread Gino Lucrezi
Hi! I tried installing RC2 on my XP box, but every time I launch it it starts the installer again. It doesn't ask me to reboot, fortunately, but it takes time to start up. Also, it requires that I keep the MSI file around, otherwise it won't start. Anyway, thank you for the good work! Gino L
