Re: msvcr80.dll and PostgreSQL 8.3 under Windows XP

Konbanwa Hiroshi-san,

thanks for your fast reply. I installed the Microsoft Visual C++ 2005
SP1 Redistributable Package (x86) before running the PostgreSQL 8.3
setup. However, the PostgreSQL installation does still not find the
msvcr80.dll.

It seems, that the PostgreSQL setup has to be adjusted or is there any
other possibility to get it working under XP? Background is that our
application's setup is installing it's database on PostgreSQL and can't
completely do that with the dll missing.

Greetings,
Hermann
