When I am trying to install PostgreSQL I get an error message which say:
(Due to this I am not able to install PostgreSQL)

Failed to run initdb: 1!
Please see the logfile in: C/Programmer/.......

When I go to the logfile it says:

The files belonging to this database system will be owned by user SYSTEM.
This user must also own the server process.

The database cluster will be initialized with locale Danish_Denmark.1252.
The default text search configuration will be set to danish.

Can you tell me how I can solve this problem?
