Hi,

I apologize for being yet another noob posting about this problem.  I have spent 2 \
days searching the archives and the net for a solution to no avail.  Hence my post \
here.

The problem I am having is on install of 8.1.5 it fails at the initdb call.  In \
checking the log, it seems to fail when it creates the first data directory.  It gets \
past the setting file permissions, but when it tries to create data/global it spits \
out an error message saying that "C:\Program Files" cannot be created.  File exists.  \
(Please excuse the fragmented message, I'm going off memory here).  Of course at this \
point it rolls back the install.

Does anyone have a solution to this problem?  I would truly appreciate any help.

Thanks.
Alex.
