Hi, I just uninstalled version 8.4 and tried installing version 9.1 in my computer (my system is Windows 7). The issue Im facing was that when I clicked run to install the new version one of the steps was requiring me the following:
"please provide a password for the database superuser (postgres) and service account (postgress). If the service account already exists in windows, you must enter the current password for the account. If the account doesnt exist, it will be created when you click "next""
I typed many possible passwords I could have but all of them tell me its incorrect. So I would like to know if there is a password I had related to my account or computer with the previous version I had? Dont even think i had an account in the past because i tried creating one now with this email that is my primary and was able to create a new account.I also read this blogpost http://pgsnake.blogspot.com/2010/07/postgresql-passwords-and-installers.html but still havent been able to figure out how to solve that password issue. I would really appreciate if you could help me out with this issue. Thanks a lot for your time.
