Hi Mark,
yes, it´s a windows file permissions problem. But i´m the administrator
so i don´t know... Googling i've found there´re problems with read only
attribute in windows xp ( but it nevers was a problem until now). You can´t
change read-only attribute with some folders ... But it´s not a problem for
windows to delete that read-only folders ( well, sometimes yes). I can
delete postgresql installation folder but can´t write files into the same
folder...
But what i can´t understand is what is different now : i have installed
previous version of both postgresql and postgis and never had this issue.
Maybe something have changed in postgresql install method? I´ll search in
postgresql forum...
And other problem is, why can´t i find any other info about this topic in
Inet? It seems a problem in my computer... Any examples of successfull
installation of postgresql 8.3.3.1 with postgis 1.3.3 or 1.3.2 will be
welcomed! :)
I´ll try to install postigs in other computer this afternoon...
Gus

Hi all,
i´m trying to upgrade my postgresql version ( it was 8.2) in windows ,
so i' ve downloaded and installed postgresql 8.3. When i try to install
postgis 1.3.3 with the Application Stack Builder and after downloading
the postgis installer, appears an error
"Error opening file for writing" ( see jpg)
everytime it wants to copy a file to the install_folder.
I was changed the directory name, i have downloaded postgis installation
files from pgFoundry, i have changed to postgis 1.3.2 but nothing works.
Any help?
Thanks in advance,
Gus
Hi Gus,
It almost looks like it's just a simple file permissions problem. Are you
running the installer as an administrator, and does the administrator user
have the correct file permissions on the relevant directories?
HTH,
Mark.
