Regina,
I guess this e-mail was intended for somebody else (Willy).I still haven't been
able to install PostGIS 2.0 on my Windows XP, but am using it on Windows 7
succesfully.
Yours sincerely,Wouter

Willy,
when you say compressed postgis file -- you mean the one on
this page?
http://www.postgis.org/download/windows/#windbinaries
I unfortunately don't have a windows xp machine readily handy
to test with. I haven't tried upgrading my test to 9.1.7 to rule that out
as an issue so I'll give that a try.
This issue is usually caused by libxml2-2.dll
incompatibilities. Though I gather you are using the one packaged with
PostGIS since it looks like the postgres one isu using
libxml2.dll
Have you been running PostGIS 2 or 1.5 on your windows xp
successfully in past
Thanks,
Regina

2.0 instalation problem
Hi,
I have the same problem.
I installed postgres on an XP PC, which worked fine. (PostgreSQL 9.1.7,
compiled by Visual C++ build 1500, 32-bit)
Then I used the StackBuilder to install PostGIS 2.
Upon creating the extension, i get the error "ERROR: could not load library
"C:/Program Files/PostgreSQL/9.1/lib/postgis-2.0.dll": unknown error
998"
The same happens when executing the sql "create extension
postgis;"
I tried pasting the contents from the bin folder from the
compressed postgis installation file into ../9.1/bin/, but to no
avail.
I used Depends.exe to diagnose, like Paragon suggested.
I
included the dwi-file as an attachment.
Is there anything i can
do?
Cheers,
WBL

So, I've been trying to install PostGIS 2.0 over and over
again on several
different Windows XP computers, but didn't succeed in
getting it up and
running. So I ended up borrowing my brother's Windows 7
pc, using the exact
same download (postgreSQL + postgis using stackbuilder)
which took me about
5 minutes to succesfully install the whole
thing.
I have no clue why it doesn't work on my XP. More exactly, why
it can't find
the correctly located postgis-2.0.dll-file. But at least I'll
be able to
test and recap the 'PostGIS in Action' on Windows 7 from now
on.
Many thanks for suggesting and helping anyway.
