Обсуждение: Windows 8.0 beta on Server 2003 Installer problem
This may not be a bug but I only have one Windows 2003 Server to try it
on. The package installed fine on Windows XP Professional and Windows
2000 professional.
Launching the installer it looks fine until it gets to the screen where
you can select which options to install and which directories to use.
Then it crashes with the error:
"The installer has encountered an unexpected error installing
this package. This may indicate a problem with this package. The error
code is 2819."
Anyone experiencing this problem? Is there a service patch or fix I
need to apply to Windows? My current version is 5.2 (Build
3790.srv03_rtm.030324-2048)

Cheryl,
you can learn more about the problem by doing some logging...
msiexec /Lv c:\\temp\\nase2.txt /i postgresql-8.0-beta2-dev3.msi
"c:\\temp\\nase2.txt" is the file wereto the logging is done. You can
read there more about the exact error ... what was done last.
Best go from the end, where there is all that "removing ...."

Cheryl,=20 I digged through you log, and stumbled: ####################################################### MSI (c) (B0:94): Product: PostgreSQL 8.0-beta2-dev3 -- The installer has encountered an unexpected error installing this package. This may indicate a problem with this package. The error code is 2819. The arguments are: Service_Dialog, esvcacct, ### MSI (c) (B0:94): Database string pool is corrupted. #### ####################################################### For me this looks like a corrupted installer package - or some other reading problems. Did you check the validity of that particular installer package, to avoid "corrupted .msi file"? Are you logged in locally to the server? Local Administrator?

I wondered about the corrupt installer problem (since I cannot download fil= es here I downloaded it at home and put on CD), but it installed fine on Wi= ndows XP Professional.=20=20 Perhaps this is a corruption that XP forgives but 2003 does not. I've had = some problems with 2003 on this box (Dell GX260) reading certain ISO CDs, b= ut I copied the file locally to run the program. I logged in as local administrator to run the program. One of our IT admin guys said I could test it on his server 2003 so I'll tr= y it out and see how it goes.

I have no idea what to do about that, thoguh :-) But if it succeeds on all other machines (with *the same download*), and consistently fails on this one, that sounds like it could be it. Can you install other MSI based packages on this machine? //Magnus

I was able to install on a another 2003 server, so it must be a problem with my machine. Although I sure wish I knew what the problem is, since the other server is almost identical. It's a good thing in the end though because that server is a much better test platform. Thanks all for your suggestions. -----Original Message----- From: pgsql-bugs-owner@postgresql.org [mailto:pgsql-bugs-owner@postgresql.org] On Behalf Of Bender, Cheryl Sent: Wednesday, September 15, 2004 11:27 AM To: Magnus Hagander; Harald Armin Massa; pgsql-bugs@postgresql.org Subject: Re: [BUGS] Windows 8.0 beta on Server 2003 Installer problem <<But if it succeeds on all other machines (with *the same download*), and consistently fails on this one, that sounds like it could be it.
