The following bug has been logged online: Bug reference: 1472 Logged by: Joachim Schuette Email address: [EMAIL PROTECTED] PostgreSQL version: 8.0.1 Operating system: Win2k Description: Win-Installation failed due to missing access-rights Details:
I ran the installation under a non-admin account and always it terminated with "Failed to set permissions on the installed files...". The reason is, the installation process sets the deny-column (Properties in Win-Explorer) for permission in the subfolder \8.0, even when I set the access-rights for that folder to non-changing-right before starting the installation. The effect is similar to closing a door while wanting to go through. Whether this behaviour is due to a message following the window for setting up the database cluster, i.e., "failed to open local computer policy...", I can not resolve. Do you have any hints for a work around or is this a real bug? If necessary, I can send you a protocol showing all the windows during installation. ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 4: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
