Re: Win32 PostgreSQL 8.0 Beta 1 Installer available

Hi,

I think I finally have this narrowed down to a reproducible scenario. 
Reproducible on my machine, at least. :-)

- If you install with default service ID (pgsql-8.0-beta1) and the 
service is started when you run uninstall, then it is removed immediately.

- If you install with default service ID (pgsql-8.0-beta1) and the 
service is stopped, then it is marked as disabled and removed at first 
reboot.

- If you use a custom service ID, then it is never removed and you have 
to use a registry editor to delete it manually.

Regards,
Aleksander
