Summary:
Error in PostgreSQL install

Detailed description
I am trying to install version 3.0 of GREAT-ER from the December 2011 release CD.

The installation fails due to the following error:
"Error running C:\temp\postgresql_installer\createuser.exe "." "greater-db" "****" : The service user account 'greater-db' could not be created: The password is too short or not complex enough."

Text taken from bitrock_installer_8856.log" file (attached). Several passwords tried, with most complex being: "Greater123!@#". This password exceeds the domain requrements on my system.

Install tried on Windows 7 and XP machines. Same result. I have heard of other users with a similar problem, but was resolved with a password less complex than the one above.

Thanks for your help.

Chris

Hi,
I would advise you to recheck that it really exceeds the domain requirements on your system. The problem is likely that the password contains the username.
