Hello
I have installed PostgreSQL 8.4.1 in my PC. For the requirement of data
migration I again want to install "PostgreSQL enterprise DB 9.2".
I couldn't install it because
I have select option "postgresql compatible" on "configuration mode". So
prompt wants me to enter "password". I have enter my existing postgres
password "postgres'. But I couldn't install. An error message
displayed as*"service user account 'postgres' couldnot be created".
Please help me to
clear the problem*

Are you intentionally trying to install PostgresPlus Advanced Server?
If you are working just on your PC, you should be able to use the
PostgreSQL installer:
http://www.enterprisedb.com/products-services-training/pgdownload#windows

The password the PPAS installer is asking you for is the password to
your EnterpriseDB account, not a local Windows account. You need to
register an EnterpriseDB account before you can install PPAS.

IIRC, service failure creates some event logs information in windows. And
also you can verify the bit rock installer log files from %TEMP% location.
