Problem Installing PostgreSQL

I downloaded PT3 with PostgreSQL included, installed PT3, attempted to install SQL and I get this error, then it undoes everything it was doing...

"Failed to retrieve the 'CustomActionData' property whilst preparting to execute initdb."

Thoughts?

THanks.

I think this is a bug with the PostgreSQL installer. You can try downloading the latest version and see if it's been fixed: http://www.postgresql.org/ftp/binary/v8.3.1/win32/

Nope, no dice.

I tried installing straight from their site and get the same exact error.

Josh, you're the man, and I know you're swamped, but you'll figure it out soon enough.
Thanks for your hard work.

When you say that you tried installing straight from there site, did you download the file, extract it, then run the installation?

Best regards,

Yes, Derek....

I downloaded, extracted and then attempted installing. It didn't work and I got the same error as when I tried installing through the PT-install process.
