Thanks that was it. Had installed an AVR programming environment that used cygwin. C:\WinAVR\bin;C:\WinAVR\utils\bin; Note that I wasable to re-install version 8.0.4 of postgres without having to remove the references to WinAVR from the environment variables. thanks again Richard Magnus Hagander wrote: See http://www.postgresql.org/docs/faqs.FAQ_windows.html, question 3.1. Your problem is most likely with a broken DLL file in the system path, usually from cygwin. //Magnus-----Original Message----- From: pgsql-general-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:pgsql-general-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Richard Sydney-Smith Sent: Thursday, November 10, 2005 10:01 AM To: pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Windows installer fails for 8.1 I have installed successfully on one machine. Removed 8.0 and then installed 8.1 ok However the second machine fails. Asks for the language and then halts. If I kill process in task manager then installation resumes but then fails completely with a "Chinese" user name. Computer is laptop with locale = Australia and language = English. Have included the last bit of the install log. Note : have also just installed/removed pgAdmin and open office and they were ok. thanks as always.
