PostgreSQL version: 8.3.0
Operating system: Windows XP SP2 - german
Description: initdb failed - "postgres" not found
Details:
After a successful installation, I want to initialize
a new db-cluster using initdb.
I've got following message:
The program "postgres" is needed by initdb but was not found in the same
directory as "C:\Programme\PostgreSQL\8.3\bin/initdb".
Check your installation.
The file postgres.exe (3.661.824 Byte) is allready there and would be
executable ...
