Re: [PORTS] Attention of all PostgreSQL 8.1.0-2 Windows Installer

I agree that these errors indicate a proper install where the server 
crashes after install.  That is exactly what happens.

But! That bizzare behaviour does not manifest itself when using the 
installers of previous versions of PostgreSQL.

For all versions of PostgreSQL that I have successfully installed so far 
(8.0.4 and all others prior to that), I used the folder "C:\Program 
Files\Postgresql\" for the PostgrerSQL files and the folder "D:\DBASES\" 
for the database files.  I tried the default folders as well but it did 
not make any difference.

When I say script I mean the batch file that comes in the PostgreSQL 
8.1.0-2 zip file.

I did not have to follow the steps you mention because I did not care 
about the database I had running on PostgrSQL 8.0.4.

I unistalled the 8.0.4 version completely and deleted all database files 
and folders. I.e. "D:\DBASES\" and "C:\Program Files\Postgresql\", which 
is actually deleted automatically by the unistaller.

I hope the above info will be of some use to you.
Regards, Ilias
