Can you explain your situation in general?
Did you already have postgres installed or is this the first time?
Did you try the PT3 Full installer? That should have set postgres up for you.

Assuming you need to do it the way you are, Uncheck the "initialize database" checkbox when installing the PostgreSQL upgrade and that should fix it for you.
