Troubleshooting

If you encounter any problems during installation, please check the logfile that
is created in /tmp on Linux or Mac OS X or %TEMP% on Windows. The file will be
called install-postgresql.log. The logfile may contain the superuser password
you specified during the installation, which should be replaced before sharing
the log with anyone.


Did you look to see if there is anything in the above location that provides
more information?
