Pentaho安装错误：运行initdb.exe -U postgres -E UTF8 -D时出错

Question

I am new to Pentaho, I just download a Pentaho Business Analytics 64 bit version(My os is Windows 64bit). When I install, I'm getting an "Error running initdb.exe -U postgres -E UTF8 -DC:/PENTAH~1/POSTGR~1/data" message. Does anybody know how to solve this problem?Thanks!

Answer 1

1. Check if Postgres is already installed in your system with port 5432, using netstat -a

2. This error most likely appears when there's problem while installing Postgres. Go to "My Computer" right-click "properties", choose "Advanced System Settings", "Environmental Variables". In "system variables" for the variable ComSpec remove the semicolon after cmd.exe . This worked for me and allowed me to install Postgres.

Answer 2

我使用现有的PostgreSQL而不是捆绑在一起解决了我的问题。
