Обсуждение: BUG #3715: StackBuilder failing

The following bug has been logged online:

Bug reference:      3715
Logged by:          Thomas Haegi
Email address:      me@alternize.com
PostgreSQL version: 8.3b2
Operating system:   Windows 2003
Description:        StackBuilder failing
Details:

This is on a vanilla 8.3b2 installation: running stackbuilder from either
the start menu's shortcut or through the commandline results in the
following error message box:

------------------------
C:\program files\postgresql\8.3-beta2\bin\StackBuilder.Exe

This application has failed to start because the application configuration
is incorrect. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.

[OK]
------------------------

i've been using the installer version "postgresql-8.3-beta2.zip".

as an additional remark: the installer's last screen asks if one wants to
run stackbuilder - it would be nice to give a short explanation what it is
about, and why it has to be run (if it has to, at all :))

thanks, works fine now. maybe worth a short note in the download
directory, so that others won't report the same thing?
