PostgreSQL version: 8.2.4-1
Operating system: Windows XP Professional
Description: PostgreSQL Setting permissions for folders during
installation then Crashing
Details:
Running the installation, everything works fine until it starts copying
files. Then it reaches a fatal error, and says:
Failed to set permissions on the installed files.
Please see the logfile in 'C:\Program
Files\PostgreSQL\8.2\tmp\pgperm.log'.
8.2 then become a folder that I as administrator of the system do not have
permissions to access. I can't get into the folder, I can't delete the
folder. I can't do anything to it. The installer then rolls back and quits.
I've tried this 3 times, and now have 3 different folders that I can't
delete.
Please help.
