R: R: Postgres 8.3-dev

I tried to set that policy to all available settings [activate, not
activate, not set] but the result does not change, the installer stops with
the same error.

Here below elevated privileges set for Windows installer

I then tried the same things on a true Windows XP Professional SP2 (not
virtual machine) trying to set the above settings and the results were the
same. I added the ‘postgres’ user to Administrators group, but doesn’t work
either. On that machine there is a 8.2.4 version running

Hmm, that is odd. iirc, there is a Windows policy option that tells the

installer to always run with elevated privileges. Do you know if that

effectively runs installers as SYSTEM, or does it elevate the privileges

of the current user somehow?

Paolo; could that option be set manually, or though group policy on your

system?
