I've had the misfortune to maintain a win32 installer (in my own time) before, so this is a bit of a hot button. Sure, it works on every system I have access to without issues, but because your FarkWare 4000 Super Privacy Nuker ZX software breaks everything that tries to set file system permissions, the installer's clearly defective. Argh. I still shouldn't let it get to me. My apologies to Nikhil. In any case, while I the EDB installer works extremely well for the clear majority, like anything it could use improvement, and detailed constructive feedback on what exactly needs improvement can only be a good thing. It's the *detailed* bit that needs work right now, though... ( For example, people _do_ get confused by its handling of the postgres service account, especially during reinstall, and it'd be interesting to see if there were other approaches taken by other software that avoided needing to involve the user in working with the postgres service account password directly. ) -- Craig Ringer -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
