Hi All:
I am getting following error from initdb during silent
installation of 8.0.1:
creating directory C:/Program
Files/PostgreSQL/8.0/data/global ... initdb: could not create directory
"C:/Program Files": File exists
I have searched about this issue and usually this happens
due to a permission problem. I have checked the permission they look
fine to me. Also I have used same install on at least 15 other PCs (Mix
of win 2K and win xp) and it worked fine for each one except this one.
Any ideas what might be the problem? Following are the permissions on
this PC (BTW other PCs have exactly same permissions and install works without
any problem):
C:\: Everyone => Allow
FullControl, No Deny
C:\Program Files: Group User => Allow Read &Execute,
List Folder Content, Read. No Deny
The user postgres is member of group Users.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Thanks
Karim
