Обсуждение: initdb.exe error while installing postgres 8.0
Hi all, When I tried to install Postgresql 8.0 on windows xp (ntfs) on my system it gave me the following error: initdb.exe Application error: the application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000022). Clikc on OK to to terminate the application. then it gave me a message: Failed to run initdb: -1073741790 please see logfile in c://.../8.0/tmp/initdb.log but there is nothing in that file. I turned off the firewall, disabled anti-virus, gave full control to every one in security settings, still it didn't worked. I installed it successfull on a different computer it worked fine. can anybody help me. Thankx a million in advance. thank you, shashi. -- Shashi Kiran Reddy.

HI Martin, Thanks for your response. I tried installing from postgresql user account, it didn't worked for me. It was giving a different error (Access Denied), I gave all security permissions to that user still it didn't worked. This user is not a power user (only limited user) but i didn't see any option as power user. Do you know how to make a limited user as a power user. any other suggestions. thank you, shashi.

I donno why, but it is libpq.dll which hampered the installation, I copied libpq.dll into system32 folder when I installed mapserver, now I just renamed it to a different name and the installation was successful and postgres installed a new libpq.dll file, I donno if this causes any problems to mapserver (so far so good both mapserver and postgres are working fine). I am just curious what is the role of libpq here. can any body have any idea. I am very happy, thanx all. shashi.
