Hello, as the topic suggests there's unfortunately a pretty effective way to thwart the PostgreSQL installation via the One click installer for Windows. If a different program than the Windows Scripting Host is registered as default software for the file extension .vbs then installation fails. With 8.4.8 you get the error that suggests that the VC++ libs aren't installed properly. With 9.0.4 (64-Bit) you get the error with the TEMP path. An installed Notepad++ was the default software on Windows Server 2008 R2 in the case in question. Could you add a check for this case too, please? Thank you very much, Peter -- Sent via pgsql-admin mailing list (pgsql-admin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-admin
