Bug: When installing pgpass.conf does not get created under XP

Hi there, I notice a bug in PGADMIN 1.6.3 when installing under on Windows XP box and the user account used is not in English.

More details:

Windows XP 32bit / SP2

User account Αθανάσιος Σαμαράς (Greek Name, most probably it will appear as????, but I assume that all the languages apart English must have the same issue)

Application data location: “C:\Documents and Settings\Αθανάσιος Σαμαράς\Application Data\”

Result: Can not open any database in pgadmin III due to error message “can not open file C:\Documents and Settings\Αθανάσιος Σαμαράς\Application Data\postgresql\pgpass.conf” and the program crashes, sending report back.

Reason: During installation the posgresql folder and pgpass.conf does not get created.

Workaround: go to application data and create the postgresql folder manually, create an empty file called pgpass.conf, since it is under your account there should not be any problems with privileges.

Cheers

A.E.S.
