I have PgAmin 4.6 running with PostgreSQL 12 on my windows 2019 server. I want to install postgreSQL 14. I have tried installing it using the latest EDB .exe file a few times: Each attempt I wind up with a post installation error. I've tried logged in as an administrator. I've adjusted the postgresql folder security privileges to allow 'all application packages', 'all restricted application packages', users in the administrator group and my own user account with full control... and I have even tried adding postgres as a local administrator account and installing from an elevated cmd-prompt. Any way I have sliced it - I continue to get the post-installation error. The installer finishes, but no postgresql 14 service installed, and the only folder in the postgreSQL 14 directory is Data.
What am I missing? What gives? Can I use pgAdmin to create a new postgresql 14 server? How do I initialize a postgreSQL 14 database? Wywould it matter if I already have pdAdmin 4.6 and postgreSQL 12 installed?I'd appreciate a little help. Many thanks!

There seems to be some conflict between running as an underprivileged user and administrator. You have to run as an underprivileged user to create the database cluster and then an administrator to register the service. To get around this, first run initdb in some other directory, rather than the postgres data directory eg:
\apps\server\postgres\bin\initdb.exe -A md5 -Upostgres -Eutf8 -W -D"data" --no-locale
then you copy the data directory created to the postgres data dir specified in the failed install, and then register the service manually like:
pg_ctl -N postgres -D your_postgres_data_dir
Then you will be able to start/manage the postgres service in windows services as normal.
We had some 12 agents (vsts-agent-linux-x64-2.188.4) running on one Az VM (Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS) as processes (./config.sh && screen ./run.sh). All was well..
I had to run some command related to /tmp folder but it kept showing busy and we suspected that our Agents might be using /tmp. Unfortunately instead of any other clean way of stopping the agents, we killed all processes on this VM manually, including the agents'.
After the /tmp related command ran successfully, I tried running screen ./run.sh from one of the agent directories. And I got an error:
Failed to create CoreCLR, HRESULT: 0x80004005
I also had tried :
.agent2/run.sh and I got the error :
ldd: ./bin/libcoreclr.so: No such file or directory
ldd: ./bin/System.Security.Cryptography.Native.OpenSsl.so: No such file or directory
ldd: ./bin/System.IO.Compression.Native.so: No such file or directory
ldd: ./bin/System.Net.Http.Native.so: No such file or directory
Failed to create CoreCLR, HRESULT: 0x80004005
I even downloaded a new .tar for the agent and ran a fresh ./config . But I get the same error on ./config as well
Is there a solution to this? Please help
export COMPlus_EnableDiagnostics = 0, and then running ./config from the agent directory. worked!
I had this issue when running as the non-privileged user specified in the systemd file but running as root user worked fine.
Finally used:
strace -f -o trace.log /<executable path>/<executable name>
Which led me to:
9183 mknod("/tmp/clr-debug-pipe-9183-8112345738-in", S_IFIFO|0700) = -1 EACCES (Permission denied)
This caused me to compare the /tmp directory between working and non-working boxes.
[<not-working-hostname>]$ ll /
drwxrwxr-x 7 root root 93 Jan 5 21:37 tmp
[<working-hostname>]$ ll /
drwxrwxrwt 7 root root 93 Jan 5 21:59 tmp
(Note the r-x vs rwt)
Fix:
[<hostname>]# chmod 1777 /tmp
I'm having problems with files created from within Eclipse running on Linux.
All files (as far as I know) only gets the owner read and write permissions. Build output is the same but with the execute permission added.
The "test" file is created in Eclipse by File > New, and the "test1" file is created in command line by "touch" by the same user in the same folder.
-rw-------. 1 user stdgroup 0 Mar 15 10:22 test
-rw-r--r--. 1 user stdgroup 0 Mar 15 10:23 test1
My umask is set to 0022, so the output from the "touched" file is correct.
I'm running Eclipse Oxygen.2 Release 4.7.2 on Linux RedHatEnterpriseServer 7.3.
Anyone knows if there is a setting in Eclipse that can cause this, or any other ideas as to why this happens?
I am using VSTS Release Management. The first step is to do a "Windows Machine File Copy". The settings are below. This fails when doing the robocopy with an error message of "Access Denied". The file path shown in the settings below gets translated to \\machine\e$\xxxx\TargetFolder. Why am I getting access denied? I don't get this message if I create a shared folder on the target folder and change the destination folder to: \\machine\TargetFolder. The Admin user is a local admin on the machine.
My question is why do I need to setup a shared folder in order to get this to work. Why can't it use the admin share (i.e. \\machine\e$\xxxx\TargetFolder)
Here is the log. The source and destination servers are both Win 2012R2 servers. UAC is turned off on the destination server. I have tried /B and /ZB as arguments and that didn't work.

This issue was resolved by using an Active Directory account. This fixed the issue of not being able to Robocopy with the admin share. This worked on machines that the AD user had access, and for machines where the AD didn't have access but where a local admin windows account was setup with the same name as the AD account.

Translating, this is Win7 Home Premium, Here's my PATH, directory of .zip files, directory of all occurrences of WZUNZIP.EXE and WZCL*.DLL.
I did have an older version WZCLINE.DLL so I overwrote it with the 32-bit newer version. The run results do not vary whether this WZCLINE.DLL file is present or not.
The results of two attempted listings is shown.
I'm sure this used to work on earlier versions. It is documented as working with the version I have (Winzip 17.5) but no combination of the -v switch appears to be processed according to the documentation.
I've tried -v and -V and -vb, -vr, -vi, -vm, -vt - all with precisely the same complaint from WZUNZIP.
Sadly, WINZIP has started to ignore me, after first having requested the following:
Please provide some additional information.
- Please describe the exact steps you take to cause this problem to occur.
- What version of Windows and of WinZip are you running (you can check the
· WinZip version by clicking WinZip's Help, About WinZip menu item)?
- Are there any error messages that appear? If so, please include the full
· text of the error message and the title of the error dialog box.
- Does the problem happen consistently, or does it appear to happen randomly?
- Does it happen with all files, some files, or one file in particular? If
· the problem happens with one file in particular, can you tell me how to
· obtain a copy of the file?
- Are there any other applications running when the problem occurs?
Please provide the screenshot of the error message you are getting. Please use the following link which will gives you more information in this issue: http://kb.winzip.com/kb/entry/21/
Most of that information is in the report I sent them, so I really don't have much hope of getting competent support there. The only information I can provide in addition is
Yes, it happens consistently on every .zip I've tried it on. - And the Point,click and giggle version has no problem decoding those files.
No, nothing else happening on the system at all.
7zip appears to list the contents happily.
So - anyone with a cure for this error with WZUNZIP? How do I get a file listing for a .zip file
After navigating through the endless canned responses, I finally got to communicate with a technician.
The problem was isolated to my haing changed the PATH sequence, and WZUNZIP was locating prior DLLs on the revised path, hence re-installing the CLI add-on was ineffective.
Uninstalled WINZIP, located all the stray WZ* elements and deleted them, reininstalled and sanity was restored.
(posted for the sake of those who may encounter a similar problem - as evidently some have, given there have been responses)
