DEBUG: Error 2888: Executing the TextStyle view failed
The installer has encountered an unexpected error installing this
package. This may indicate a problem with this package. The error code
is 2888. The arguments are: TextStyle, ,
Presumably this is the problem.
If no-one seems to know here, perhaps try the windows installer project.
They will be able to tell you what can cause this error.

I just installed PostgreSQL 8.0 with the "service" registration option
disabled and tried to execute the following and it fails with the same
error.
runas.exe /env /user:DA15666\postgres "C:\PostgreSQL\8.0\bin\initdb.exe
-D C:\PostgreSQL\8.0\data"
So the problem is not with the installer but either with initdb or how
my system is configured. Help?
