Обсуждение: PGSQL 8.0.1 Win 2K Installation Problem
I downloaded the native Windows 8.0.1 installer and sorted through the various Windows permissions problems by running theInstaller as an admin but not creating a cluster. Then I log out and log back in as the limited "postgres" user and runinitdb.exe from the command line. Initdb creates the data folder and everything seems to be going well until just after"initializing pg_depend ... ok". The next lines are: ----- creating system views ... FATAL: unrecognized node type: 653 child process was terminated by signal 1 initdb: removing contents of data directory ----- What am I doing wrong? This installation is on Windows 2000 Pro running inside Virtual PC 6 on the Macintosh (10.3.8). I'vesearched all over the web but have found nothing that refers to this error code. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks! Scott _______________________________________________ No banners. No pop-ups. No kidding. Make My Way your home on the Web - http://www.myway.com

You seem to have a miscompiled backend. Where did you get the installer
from? Maybe a bad download?

I downloaded the PostGreSQL Windows installer from another FTP site but I still ended up with the same arcane error messagewhen I tried to install PostGreSQL 8.0.1 on W2K running inside Virtual PC 6 (Macintosh). I then ran the installer on a "real" computer (Athlon 1900 running W2K) and the installation went as advertised. So I've got to believe that there is some bug that results from the interaction of the PostGreSQL installer and the chipset emulated by Virtual PC 6. If I'm the first person to attempt to install PostGreSQL 8.0.1 in that environment, thenI guess this is a bug report. :-) Thanks! Scott _______________________________________________ No banners.

Does Virtual PC 6 really emulate NTFS drives? Just curious: why would you want to use Virtual PC/Windows rather than native PostgreSQL on OS X?

It emulates an IDE disk--the Microsoft NTFS driver runs on the virtual machine and talks to the emulated disk. > Just curious: why would you want to use Virtual PC/Windows rather than > native PostgreSQL on OS X? A very good question indeed. :) -Doug

I think you're reporting to the wrong place ;-). If Virtual PC fails to
act like a real PC, it's not the fault of the application that exposed
the deficiency in their emulation.

I assume this is also VirtuaL PC on the mac, right? I've been using VirtualPC on the PC for a lot of th dev work on the intaller, and it should certaily work there.. Does this only occur with win2k, or does it also occur with XP/2003/whatever? In the end I doubt there is much we can do, it seems to be an issue of Virtual PC not being close enough to a PC. //Magnus >-----Original Message----- >From: pgsql-general-owner@postgresql.org >[mailto:pgsql-general-owner@postgresql.org] On Behalf Of Jonel Rienton >Sent: den 20 februari 2005 00:52 >To: postgres list >Cc: sdownie@myway.com >Subject: Re: [GENERAL] PGSQL 8.0.1 Win 2K Installation Problem > > >-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- >Hash: SHA1 > >just to let you know, i got the same error message when i tried it on >my win2k inistall emulated by Virtual PC 7. > >- ----- >Jonel Rienton >http://blogs.road14.com >Software Developer, *nix Advocate >On Feb 19, 2005, at 1:14 PM, S.D. wrote: > >> >> I downloaded the PostGreSQL Windows installer from another FTP site >> but I still ended up with the same arcane error message when I tried >> to install PostGreSQL 8.0.1 on W2K running inside Virtual PC 6 >> (Macintosh). >> >> I then ran the installer on a "real" computer (Athlon 1900 running >> W2K) and the installation went as advertised. >> >> So I've got to believe that there is some bug that results from the >> interaction of the PostGreSQL installer and the chip set emulated by >> Virtual PC 6.
