Dear Chris,

Please try turning off UAC and specifying a localmachine user (not the domain user if your machine is on a company domain) on account creation screen.

To disable the UAC:
1. Launch MSCONFIG by typing it in the Run menu.
2. Click on the Tools tab. Scroll down till you find "Disable UAC". Click on that line.
3. Press the Launch button.
4. A CMD window will open. When the command is done, you can close the window.
5. Close MSCONFIG. You may need to reboot the computer for changes to apply.

I am able to install the EnterpriseDB Postgres 8.3 installer using the above procedure (I haven't yet tested using the default Vista configuration, since UAC has been turned off on my machine for a long time). I will update once I retested the installer with UAC turned on.

Local password policy might be another area you want to look into. Try to provide a password which follows the password policy restrictions of your computer domain.

If possible can you update whether your computer is part of a domain or is it a standalone system. This will help us to recreate the scenario at our end.

We appreciate your patience in this regard.

Kind regards,

Dear calhoun,

8.3 installer has this fix

. Next release of 8.2 installer will also have this fix.

Kind Regards,

The libssl.so.* file would also needs to go in /usr/lib64. A symlink should also be created there for libssl.so.4.

So, the steps would become:

1. Copy the libssl.so.* file, for instance, libssl.so.0.9.8, installed with EnterpriseDB Postgres from /opt/edb-postgres/8.2/utils/lib to /usr/lib and /usr/lib64

2. Create a symlink to the above file in /usr/lib as ln -s libssl.so.0.9.8 libssl.so.4

3. Create a symlink to the above file in /usr/lib64 as ln -s libssl.so.0.9.8 libssl.so.4

4. Uninstall EnterpriseDB Postgres, reinstall EnterpriseDB Postgres.

Dear calhoun,

Try following work around:

1. Copy the libssl.so.* file, for instance, libssl.so.0.9.8, installed with EnterpriseDB Postgres from /opt/edb-postgres/8.2/utils/lib to /usr/lib

2. Create a symlink to the above file in /usr/lib as ln -s libssl.so.0.9.8 libssl.so.4

3. Uninstall EnterpriseDB Postgres, reinstall EnterpriseDB Postgres.

Let us know if it works or not.
