Postgres 9.3 Installation Problems Windows 7 64 Bit Pro
Hi,
We are having a problem installing Postgres 9.3 on Windows 7 pro.
The installation freezes and you can leave it running overnight without any error messages.
The Bitrock log's last entries are:
[14:45:43] Removing the existing ldconfig setting - set during the previous installation.
[14:45:43] Running the post-installation/upgrade actions:
[14:45:43] Write the base directory to the ini file...
[14:45:43] Write the version number to the ini file...
The program (User interface) says "Database cluster initalisation" or something like that
We've tried uninstalling and reinstalling, as well as installing to a different drive. Checked permissions on the data directory..
Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks
It should be possible to install the SW without initializing the cluster.
That way you may be in a better position to troubleshoot the issue.
Complete the installation, then use initdb to initialize a cluster. Have a
look at this url too -

Uninstall postgres. Reset windows socket.
Go to command prompt ---> */netsh winsock reset/*
Now you should be able to install the postgres succesfully. Good Luck!!
