The OpenService call succeeds, so the service exists. It's the StartService call that fails but unfortunately it's not clear why. Can you try once more with this patch applied?
err:msi:ITERATE_StartService Failed to start service L"pgsql-8.3" (1056)
According to winerror.h, 1056 is ERROR_SERVICE_ALREADY_RUNNING.
Oops...
This might have something to do with the 10+ installation attempts I did in this prefix without 'rm -rf'ing it.
In a clean prefix, it seemed to start the service, and then
pg_ctl: no operation specified Try "pg_ctl --help" for more information.
appeared in the terminal, and the trace stopped. The installer was frozen! I had to ^C it from the terminal (and it took a few seconds to respond). Then this message appeared in the terminal:
Deleting active MRSW lock (0x131fe4), expect failure
and the "Fatal error" messagebox appeared again.
