Re: Installing version 8.4

Hi Ashesh

I managed to get 8.4 running.

I had previously downloaded PGAgent and installed it with no effect.

However I just reinstalled it from the File Manager and it did the job.

Now I want to get it going on XP but that isn`t quite so important.

Thanks for all your help.

Bob

During the install it was recommended that I run the scripts at
PostgresPlus\8.4ss\share\PostgreSQL\contrib
You should run the script against the output of "pg_config.exe --sharedir", which should be "C:\Program Files (x64)\PostgresPlus\8.4SS\share\contrib" on your case. (and every windows).
The folder contrib is present holding 78 files. But the PostgreSQL folder is missing.

Perhaps, that may be of some help?
Thanks.
But, it is not. :-)

Also I got the same error on my other computer that is running Windows XP. So if there is nothing wrong with the PostgreSQL installation it may well be some common element in both my computers.
Can you please share the log files from that machine too?
Are you using domain to setup the intranet?

The log file - you shared previously, does says that you're using existing data directory.
If possible, please remove the existing data directory after uninstallation and rerun the installer, and then please share the log file.
(NOTE: Please take back of the data directory, if it does contain some important data).
