Hi AsheshWhere would I find initcluster.vbs ?
Installer calls initcluster.vbs after creating user.
I want to know the output of that script in the log file.

Thanks for the vote of confidence Adrian.
However, being 2 months shy of 68, there may be enough time left for me to continue learning PostgreSQL/PostGIS and Delphi to accomplish what I want to accomplish.
I don't feel I should divert time to researching the intricacies of PostgreSQL installation. That's why I am asking the experts for help.
If anyone has some thoughts or suggestions the log is REALLY below in this e-mail.
The first 90% of the log is the installation prep and unpacking the different elements showing no problems until - (the first problem appears to be -- "Starting the database server...
Executing cscript //NoLogo "C:\Program Files\PostgresPlus\8.4SS\installer\server\startserver.vbs" postgresql-8.4

- but I have no idea what this actually means.)
Script output:

User 'DESKTOP\postgres' already member of 'Users' group.

It's a large file. I'm not sure what is needed but here is the latter part
of the file.

Actually I was thinking you might want to browse the file to see if anything
stands out. Most of the issues I have seen on this list relative to Windows
installs relate to permissions, so that would be a good place to start.
