Some results. First, I tried commenting out the sections on checking the existence of template_postgis but I need a couple more pieces to be able to build the NSI file on my system. Is there a location where I can find all files or do I have to set up mingw and execute the bash files ? Anyhow, I manually created template_postgis in pgAdmin just to test the postGIS installer : CREATE DATABASE template_postgis WITH OWNER = postgres ENCODING = 'WIN1252' Then when I run the postGIS installer I have the message saying template_postgis exists (which this time is true) and if I proceed it will overwrite it, so I go "yes" and it does the delete of the existing template_postgis object and creates the new one fine. From then on, the rest of the postGIS installation runs fine. Only glitch is that my newly created template_postgis object now reads : CREATE DATABASE template_postgis WITH OWNER = postgres ENCODING = 'UTF-8' So there's an encoding problem. The NSI file mentions Unicode as encoding ?? To summarize : - I have found the installer to think template_postgis exists whereas it does not exist (which causes the installer to crash when it tries to delete a non-existing object) - It is not possible to specify an encoding other that UTF-8 If I could easily build the NSI file I could try and play with the condition that checks the existence of the template_postgis object.
