Обсуждение: BUG #4886: Password Crash

The following bug has been logged online:

Bug reference:      4886
Logged by:          Justin
Email address:      justin.brock@navy.mil
PostgreSQL version: 8.3.7
Operating system:   Windows XP
Description:        Password Crash
Details:

The % sign included in the password field crashes createuser.exe and
prevents setup to be completed. Below is the error in the
bitrock_installer.log file. While inserting password for the postgres
account, the Windows debug screen would come up and say create~1.exe has
failed and the next window would say that the service account postgres could
not be created. Installing 8.3.5 allowed me to pass through the error with
both createuser.exe failing and validateuser.exe failing.

Script stderr:

    Executing C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Local
Settings\Temp\postgresql_installer\createuser.exe
    Script exit code: SIGABRT

    Script output:
    child killed: SIGABRT

    Error running C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Local

    "PASSWORD" : child killed: SIGABRT

By what seems like an incredible coincidence given the amount of time
this code has been out there, this was also reported yesterday :-).

A fix is being tested as I type - thanks for the report.
